Description
JUSTICE MANNING delivered the opinion of the court: Defendant Peter Weber was charged by indictment with first degree murder and concealment of a homicidal death. (720 ILCS
5/9-1, 5/9-3.1 (West 1992).) Following a jury trial, he was found guilty of both offenses and sentenced to twenty five (25)
years and five (5) years, respectively, to be served consecutively. On appeal defendant challenges the legal sufficiency of
the indictment. Additionally, he raises two other issues: whether the prosecutor's failure to disclose the identity of an
expert obtained seven months before trial, but not disclosed until rebuttal, should have resulted in a bar of that expert's
testimony and whether the defendant's right to confrontation and cross-examination was violated where the trial court allowed
into evidence statements made by the victim to third persons prior to her death. For the reasons which follow, we affirm.
