People v. Fletcher
Appellate Court of Illinois
1Opinion of the Court
Mr. PRESIDING JUSTICE STENGEL
delivered the opinion of the court:
Following a jury trial, defendant was found guilty of murder and indecent liberties with a child. Consecutive sentences of 50-150 years for murder and 40-120 years for indecent liberties were imposed. The issues presented to this court are whether the evidence is sufficient to prove defendant’s guilt beyond a reasonable doubt, whether results of a polygraph examination taken by defendant were improperly excluded and whether the trial court erred by refusing to give second paragraph of IPI — Criminal No. 3.02.
