Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
Defendant was convicted, after jury trial, of possession of methamphetamine. Agents located items used to manufacture meth in MSR-compliance check search of Defendant's residence. Evidence was sufficient to support finding of Defendant's constructive possession of the meth, as reasonable juror could have inferred that Defendant exhibited intent and opportunity to continue exercising dominion over meth by concealing it and attempting to destroy evidence in the 10 minutes before he answered the door. Sentence of 10 years was within court's discretion. Comparison with two-year sentence of co-defendant does not establish that sentence is excessive. (STEIGMANN and APPLETON, concurring.)
