Some states have habitual criminal or three-strike laws. No sire
about Illinois.


That is exactly what he was sentenced under, IL habitual offender law.

Hmm, he was sentenced under a Class X felony.I didn't see a Class X

offence in the list of Class X offences. Habitual offender wasn't on the
list.


Idiot. He was sentenced under the IL habitual offender law, which applies
Class X *sentencing* to habitual offenders, who have committed multiple
felonies, are career criminals. There is no reqt that he actually
commit a class X felony. Got it now? Probably not.
