The brothers were convicted for murder, attempted murder and aggravated battery in a Northwest Side shooting in 1997 that killed Jorge Gonzalez.
Rosendo Hernandez holds a sign alleging a wrongful conviction linked to Reynaldo Guevara, outside of the Leighton Criminal Court Building in Chicago in 2016.
And Guevara, who has repeatedly invoked his right to remain silent when questioned about the repeated allegations, “doesn’t deny it,” attorney Joshua Tepfer said in closing arguments. “SoThe Wednesday arguments were the culmination of a three-day hearing before Judge Joanne Rosado, whom the Hernandez brothers are hoping will grant them a new trial. Rosado, who now must analyze a mountain of old records and transcripts, has not set a date to announce her decision.
Rosado also viewed part of a deposition Guevara gave in April, in which he invoked his Fifth Amendment right to remain silent dozens of times in just a few minutes — even when asked seemingly benign questions like whether or not he knew the Hernandez brothers. The other eyewitness, Daniel Violante, testified this week that he had told police from the start he never saw the shooters’ faces, and he only identified them at trial because the victim’s family had said they were the gunmen so he figured they were correct.
