2020To support her argument, defendant cites a phrase from People v. Bush, 157 Ill. 2d 248, 254 (1993), wherein our supreme court stated, “the giving of conflicting instructions, one of which is a correct statement of law and the other an incorrect statement of law, is not harmless error.” In Bush, however, the trial court erroneously instructed the jury with a non-IPI instruction concerning the limited-authority doctrine that misstated the law.

2020“The function of jury instructions is to convey to the jury the appropriate principle of law so that it may apply the correct legal principles to the facts and arrive at the proper conclusion according to the law and evidence. [Citation.] It is well established that a defendant is entitled to the benefit of any defense shown by the entire evidence even if the facts on which the defense is based are - 15 - 1-17-0368 inconsistent with defendant’s own testimony and that very slight evidence upon a given theory of the case will justify the giving of an instruction.

Strickland v. Washington green

2020Accordingly, defendant argues that her defense counsel provided ineffective assistance in failing to present a proper version of IPI 5.04, as the addition of the “timely warning” phrase precluded the jury from finding that she withdrew from the conspiracy, which in turn, precluded any chance of acquittal under the defense’s theory of the case. ¶ 28 In response, the State asserts that, even assuming defense counsel erred in not objecting to the particular version of the withdrawal instruction tendered, defendant was not prejudiced as the evidence presented at trial did not support any withdrawa
