Description
JUSTICE NICKELS delivered the opinion of the court: Defendant, Dedrick Coleman, was charged with the April 26, 1989, shooting deaths of Lance Hale and Avis Welch. The charges
against defendant included 10 counts of first degree murder (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1987, ch. 38, pars. 9-1 (a)(1), (a)(2), (a)(3)),
two counts of armed robbery (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1987, ch. 38, par. 18-2(a)), four counts of home invasion (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1987,
ch. 38, pars. 12-11 (a)(1), (a)(2)), two counts of armed violence (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1987, ch. 38, pars. 33A-29-1(a)(2)), and
two counts of residential burglary (Ill. Rev. Stat. 1987, ch. 38, par. 19-3). After a jury trial in the circuit court of Cook
County, defendant was convicted of two counts each of first degree murder, armed robbery, and home invasion. Defendant waived
the right to be sentenced by the jury and the trial court found him eligible for the death penalty and sentenced him to death.
(Ill. Rev. Stat. 1987, ch. 38, par. 9-1(h).) Defendant was also sentenced to concurrent terms of 30 years for the home invasions,
and to concurrent terms for the armed robberies: 30 years for the armed robbery of Hale, and 60 years for the armed robbery
of Welch. The sentences for armed robbery were to be served consecutive to the terms for home invasion. Defendant's death
sentences were stayed pending direct appeal to this court. Ill. Const. 1970, art. VI, § 4(b); 134 Ill. 2d Rules
603, 609(a).
