Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Postconviction Petitions
Defendant's third successive postconviction petition should advance for third-stage evidentiary hearing, as he made a substantial showing of a claim of actual innocence. Affidavits and transcripts could be considered exculpatory and support actual innocence claim, and were material to issue of police coercion; and newly discovered evidence was material and noncumulative. (ROCHFORD and DELORT, concurring.)
