372 Ill. App.3d 616

The PEOPLE of the State of Illinois, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. William Leroy OWENS, Defendant-Appellant.

Appellate Court of Illinois, Fourth District.

April 13, 2007.


Presiding Justice STEIGMANN delivered the opinion of the court:

In January 2005, a jury convicted defendant, William Leroy Owens, of attempt (first degree murder) of Mary Griffin (720 ILCS 5/8-4(a), 9-1 (West 2004)), and the trial court later sentenced him to 24 years in prison.

Defendant appeals, arguing only that the State improperly elicited the victims' opinions that defendant intended to kill Griffin and another victim. We affirm.
