People v. Aquisto

The circuit court found defendant guilty of methamphetamine-related offenses and sentenced him to concurrent terms of 25 years’ of imprisonment for aggravated participation in manufacturing and 7 years’ imprisonment for unlawful delivery. Defendant appealed alleging numerous errors in the proceedings, including claims related to the chain of custody of evidence, whether there was probable cause for a search of his residence, that it was error for the trial court to watch a video entered into evidence in the presence of counsel but not defendant, whether he was entitled to an entrapment defense, and whether the trial court erred in sentencing. The appellate court affirmed. (HARRIS and HOLDER WHITE, concurring)
