Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Hearsay
Conspiracy
Circumstantial facts, taken together and considered independent of co-conspirator's hearsay statement, were sufficient evidence of a conspiracy between Defendant and another person to sell drugs; thus, co-conspirator's hearsay statement was admissible under co-conspirator exception to hearsay rule. The fact that co-conspirator's statement was made to a confidential informant is irrelevant and does not eliminate the conspiracy.
