This week's Illinois criminal law roundup covers MSR admonishments, ineffective assistance in a sexual assault trial, force and lay opinion testimony, stipulated bench trials, and home invasion statutory interpretation. People v. Ruth — Rule 472 cannot be used to lock in an unauthorized MSR term merely because the judge misstated it at the plea hearing — https://www.courtlistener.com/opinion/10942324/people-v-ruth/ People v. Ramirez — Counsel's failure to object when the prosecutor incorrectly told the jury a hand qualifies as an object for sexual penetration constituted ineffective assistance requiring reversal — https://www.courtlistener.com/opinion/10942268/people-v-ramirez/ People v. Dailing — Neck-grabbing testimony sufficed to prove force, and a detective's observations of bruising were proper lay opinion rather than expert testimony — https://www.courtlistener.com/opinion/10940160/people-v-dailing/ People v. Haskins — A stipulated bench trial preserving a suppression issue is not converted into a guilty plea requiring Rule 402 admonishments merely because counsel later failed to preserve that issue — https://www.courtlistener.com/opinion/10940157/people-v-haskins/ People v. Kent — Home invasion does not require the injury to occur inside the dwelling, only that the victim was inside when the defendant unlawfully entered — https://www.courtlistener.com/opinion/10939464/people-v-kent/ People v. Podcast is presented by DRD Law, LLC, Chicago | drdlawllc.com | (312) 909-6570. This podcast is attorney advertising and is not legal advice.
