FELONIOUS ASSAULT – FIREARM SPECIFICATION – MURDER – SELF-DEFENSE – SENTENCING: In a prosecution for murder and felonious assault arising from a dispute at a drive-thru involving defendant's daughter and the victim's niece, defendant's convictions for murder and felonious assault were based upon sufficient evidence and were not against the manifest weight of the evidence where the jury could have reasonably found that the state disproved at least one of the elements of self-defense beyond a reasonable doubt.
