Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
As truth-in-sentencing provision does not affect sentencing range imposed for offenses of aggravated kidnapping and armed violence, but only the manner in which sentence is carried out, it does not violate proportionate penalties clause. No violation of equal protection clause where two offenses have same elements but different eligibility for good-time credit. (FITZGERALD SMITH and HOWSE, concurring.)
