People v. Bradshaw

Mr. PRESIDING JUSTICE GOLDBERG

delivered the opinion of the court:

Arthur Bradshaw (defendant) was indicted for armed robbery (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1973, ch. 38, par. 18 — 2). After a bench trial, defendant was found guilty and sentenced to 5 to 8 years. Benny Weems, a codefendant, was acquitted. Defendant has appealed.

In this court defendant urges that the trial court should not have considered the identification testimony as to defendant where the identical testimony had been rejected as to codefendant Weems and the evidence failed to prove defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt.

Oh May 5,…
