He received consecutive prison terms of 50 years for the murder and 5 years for concealment of a homicidal death. The appellate court had initially reversed and remanded for a new trial, finding plain error in purportedly inadequate questioning during jury selection, but, pursuant to a supervisory order from the Illinois Supreme Court, it reconsidered, and, ultimately, affirmed the convictions and sentences. In this decision, the supreme court agreed with what the appellate court had done, although reasoning slightly differently.Wilmington gave a statement | | | | Date Created: | 02-07-2013 | | | | Agency ID: | 112938 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000063805 Original UID: 182097 FIRST WORD: People | |
