I don’t think that IL boot camp is run privately. I think it is run by the IL DOC. (But, then, it IS Illinois, so look for payoffs to someone about everything that goes on there.) Another problem with this, is that some offenders who do legitimately qualify for boot camp, cannot get in or have to wait extended times.
To correct my earlier post, this article is about boot camp used exclusively for Cook County, so is NOT the IL DOC boot camp, and is, therefore, much more likely to be lining the pockets of some judges and others.
