Stat.1987, ch. 38, par. 12-14), raising as issues whether (1) the State used its peremptory challenges to systematically exclude jurors based on race, (2) the circuit court improperly admitted prejudicial evidence, and (3) defendant was proved guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. We affirm, for reasons which follow.
