The jury found death to be the appropriate sentence on the murder convictions and the circuit court of Du Page County imposed a sentence of death. The circuit court also found that the armed robbery and aggravated kidnapping convictions merged into the murder convictions and, therefore, did not enter sentences on those counts. However, the circuit court did sentence defendant to concurrent terms of 15 years for the identity theft convictions. Defendant now appeals both his conviction and sentence. | | | | Date Created: | 06 24 2010 | | | | Agency ID: | 106566 | | | | ISL ID: | 000000034535 Original UID: 15890 FIRST WORD: People | |
