People v. Mosley

Having been sentenced to serve 4 to 12 years in the penitentiary after conviction by a jury of burglary, defendant Alvin Mosley seeks remand of this cause for resentencing based upon errors he identifies as having taken place at the sentencing hearing. The issues presented for review are whether the State’s mention of defendant’s pending armed robbery charge during the sentencing hearing was error and whether the trial court abused its discretion at the time of sentencing by noting that it would take into account defendant’s persistence in his version of events, which the jury did not believe.
