Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Evidence
(Court opinion corrected 9/21/12.) Probative value of evidence of earlier shooting substantially outweighed its risk to cause unfair prejudice and was thus properly admitted. Evidence would not tend to allow a jury to decide Defendant's guilt based on emotion, hatred, contempt, horror or any ground other than proof offered relating to murder. (CONNORS, concurring; CUNNINGHAM, dissenting.)
