received threats related to this case that were communicated to her through her relatives. There were many threats of hurting them and burning the house if her son testified. On one occasion, someone tried to enter her home through a window. She reported it to the police as well as an incident in which someone was sliding on the roof next door.
The jury found defendant guilty of murder and aggravated battery with a firearm. He was sentenced concurrently to 50 years' imprisonment for the murder and to 20 years' imprisonment for the aggravated battery. He appealed.

ANALYSIS

I. Speedy Trial
Defendant argues that he was denied a speedy trial as mandated by the *675 Speedy Trial Act (725 ILCS 5/103-5 (West 1996)) because the State did not show diligence in locatingthe evidence was not overwhelming and rested largely on the victim's credibility). The conviction rested largely on the testimony of one eyewitness, and there was evidence that he did not consistently identify defendant as one of the shooters to the police, to an assistant State's Attorney, and to an investigator for a public defender. There were also credibility concerns about the other occurrence witnessZeta, who was the eyewitness's mother. She testified that she did not tell the police right after the shooting that she saw defendant with a gun, and there was some evidence that she did not directly tell the State about defendant until just before defendant's trial. We conclude that the prosecutor's comments about gang membership and drug dealing were reversible error. See People v. Goldsberry,
