Illinois Appellate Court
Criminal Court
Sentencing
Defendant, age 21 at time of offense, was sentenced to natural life, having been convicted by jury of felony murder, home invasion, residential burglary, and attempt (robbery). Claims based on U.S. Supreme Court's Miller decision, which found unconstitutional mandatory life sentences for juveniles, are limited to young adults aged 18 to 20. Defendant failed to make a prima facie showing of prejudice, and court properly denied his 3rd motion for leave to file successive postconviction petition.(KNECHT and HARRIS, concurring.)
