Description
At a bench trial in the criminal court of Cook County, the defendant, James Morrison, together with one William Glass, was convicted of the unlawful sale of narcotic drugs and sentenced to the penitentiary for a term of not less than ten nor more than twenty years. The conviction of Glass has been previously affirmed by this court, (People v. Glass, 16 Ill.2d 595,) and it is Morrison who has sued out the present writ of error contending he was not proved guilty beyond a reasonable doubt, and that prejudicial error occurred due to the admission of improper evidence and the failure of the People to call an informer as a witness.
