People v. Williams
Appellate Court of Illinois
1Opinion of the CourtJustice Gordon
A jury found defendant, Perry Williams, guilty of armed robbery, and the court sentenced him to a 20-year term of imprisonment. On appeal, defendant contends that the trial court failed to ask the venire the questions required under People v. Zehr (1984), 103 Ill. 2d 472, 469 N.E.2d 1062; that the State failed to prove defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt due to insufficient identification testimony; and that the prosecutor made improper remarks in closing argument. We affirm.
