79 Ill. App.3d 595 (1979)

399 N.E.2d 183

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. NORBERT V. BRAUTIGAN et al., Defendants-Appellants.

Appellate Court of Illinois — Fifth District.

Opinion filed December 14, 1979.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Michael B. White, of Hillsboro, for appellants.

Kelly D. Long, State's Attorney, of Hillsboro (Robert C. Perry, of State's Attorneys Appellate Service Commission, of counsel), for the People.


Judgment affirmed.

Mr. JUSTICE KARNS delivered the opinion of the court:
