Aurora man fighting 62-year sentence in 2008 shooting - Chicago Daily Herald
An Aurora man plans to appeal his 62-year prison sentenced issued this week for shooting a man in the face at an apartment complex in July 2008, his attorney said. Israel Cano, 35, formerly of the 600 block of High Street, was sentenced Monday by Kane County Judge Susan Clancy Boles after pleading guilty to attempted murder, aggravated battery with a firearm, armed violence, and felony marijuana possession... But Cano missed court and prosecutors rescinded their offer for a prison sentence, but wanted the guilty plea to remain, Dixon said. Dixon said Cano will appeal a judge's decision barring him from withdrawing the guilty plea. Cano was accused of using a. 38-caliber handgun to shoot a 21-year-old man who mistakenly began knocking on Cano's apartment door at about 4:45 a. m. July 13, 2008. The victim, who is the son of an Aurora police officer, was hit on the left cheek... Source: www.dailyherald.com
