People v. Peters

Appellate Court of Illinois

Decided October 20, 1975No. 60852PublishedCited by 6 opinions

1Opinion of the CourtJustice Goldberg

After a jury trial, John Peters (defendant) was found guilty of armed robbery and was sentenced to 4 to 6 years. He appeals. He was 17 years old at the time of the occurrence. He is a son of Arthur Peters. They were codefendants in the trial of criminal charges. This opinion should be read in conjunction with our opinion in the companion case (People v. Peters, 33 Ill.App.3d 284) this day filed.

The same contentions raised in the appeal of Arthur Peters (except those regarding insanity and the consecutive sentences) are made here. We reach the same result here and reject the same contentions…
