Description
The defendant, Willis P. Arndt, was indicted for murder and involuntary manslaughter. Upon a bench trial in the circuit court
of Cook County, he was found not guilty of the charge of murder, but guilty of involuntary manslaughter, and was sentenced
to the penitentiary for a term of not less than four nor more than eight years. On appeal, he contends that he was denied his constitutional right to a speedy trial; that the denial of his motion for a
continuance was a deprivation of his constitutional rights; that his jury waiver was impliedly coerced in violation of his
constitutional rights; and that the evidence was insufficient to establish his guilt beyond a reasonable doubt.
