An appeals court reversed a Round Lake Beach man's murder conviction because a PowerPoint presentation prepared by prosecutors mistakenly was sent to jurors during their deliberations.
Lake County State's Attorney Eric Rinehart said the notes inadvertently were sent to the jury and his office will retry the case.
Prosecutors used the PowerPoint presentation during closing arguments. It contained audio and video clips as well as the prosecutor's notes, according to the appellate court ruling.
