People v. Cadengo

Defendant was found guilty of one count of stalking and one count of identify theft. The court imposed financial assessments and ordered that defendant relinquish her firearm owner’s identification card and any firearms in her possession. On appeal, defendant argued that the statutory provision that provided the basis for her identity theft conviction was unconstitutional, that the State failed to prove her guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, that the trial court erred in the admission of evidence, that her second amendment rights were violated by the prohibition on her possession of firearms, and that her attorney was ineffective for failing to apply for a waiver of fees. The appellate court vacated defendant’s conviction for identity theft on constitutional grounds but affirmed her conviction for stalking and her sentence. (KNECHT and CAVANAGH, concurring)
