Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Confrontation
Defendant was convicted, after jury trial, of murder and aggravated criminal sexual assault. Defendant was denied effective assistance of counsel as his counsel failed to object to irrelevant, unfairly prejudicial portions of interrogation video where police questioned Defendant about other alleged crimes, also violating confrontation clause. Reasonable probability that trial outcome would have been different had counsel objected to this evidence. (NEVILLE and SALONE, concurring.)
