PEOPLE v. MARSHALL

No. 4-82-0145.

114 Ill. App.3d 217 (1983)

448 N.E.2d 969

THE PEOPLE OF THE STATE OF ILLINOIS, Plaintiff-Appellee, v. SHIRLEY MARSHALL, Defendant-Appellant.

Appellate Court of Illinois — Fourth District.

Opinion filed April 25, 1983.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Daniel D. Yuhas and Don L. Johnson, both of State Appellate Defender's Office, of Springfield, and Ginevera K. Moore, law student, for appellant.

J. William Roberts, State's Attorney, of Springfield (Robert J. Biderman and Denise M. Paul, both of State's Attorneys Appellate Service Commission, of counsel), for the People.


Judgment affirmed.

JUSTICE MILLS delivered the opinion of the court:

Murder.

Insanity defense.

Bench trial.

Guilty but mentally ill.

Sentence: 20 years.

We affirm.

First of all, this court is apologetic for the length of this opinion. But since defendant asserts that she was insane at the time of the murder, virtually all of the prolix evidence in this cause is relevant to some measurable extent.
