Appellate Court of Illinois September 27, 2007, 2-05-1103 (People v. Teran)

JUSTICE HUTCHINSON

delivered the opinion of the court:

A jury convicted defendant, David Teran, of first-degree murder (720 ILCS 5/9 — 1(a)(1) (West 1998)), rejecting his insanity defense under section 6 — 2(a) of the Criminal Code of 1961 (720 ILCS 5/6— 2(a) (West 1998)). On direct appeal, defendant argued that section 6 — 2(a) was unconstitutional. We rejected that argument and affirmed.
