Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
(Court opinion corrected 10/24/12.) Defendant was convicted, after jury trial, of two counts each of attempted first degree murder of a peace officer and aggravated discharge of a firearm, and sentenced to 55 years in prison. Given statutory language, court properly applied firearm sentencing enhancements, which must be added to the higher 20- to 80-year sentencing range, to Defendant's sentence. (PALMER, concurring; R.E. GORDON, dissenting.)
