People v. Breton
Appellate Court of Illinois, Second District

Relevant factsFree
After learning a witness planned to testify against him, Breton contacted an undercover agent posing as a hit man, over two weeks providing the witness's location and habits and detailed payment instructions for having him killed, and argued on appeal that because the supposed hit man never genuinely agreed to commit murder, no bilateral agreement existed as required for a solicitation conviction.
IssueFree
Whether a conviction for solicitation requires a bilateral agreement that a crime be committed.
