From the Daily Herald…
One of two men found guilty of first-degree murder in the 2018 shooting of a West Chicago man was sentenced Thursday to 50 years in prison.
Emilio Guillen, 31, formerly of Rockford, was found guilty in September of killing 26-year-old Alexander Nicolas.
Prosecutors said Guillen and Juan Calderon, 24, of Aurora, attacked Nicolas on Nov. 8, 2018, outside a home at Oak and Forest avenues. Guillen ultimately ordered Calderon to shoot Nicolas. Then the men fled the scene.
Nicolas died from a gunshot wound to the back of his head. His body was discovered the next morning by a woman taking her children to school.
