Jalowiec v. Bradshaw, No. 08-3249 (6th Cir. 2011)
Annotate this Case
Petitioner was convicted of murder and sentenced to death. After Ohio courts denied appellate and post-conviction relief, the federal district court denied all 47 claims of error in a petition for habeas corpus. The Sixth Circuit affirmed, rejecting claims that petitioner was denied a fair trial due to wrongful suppression of Brady material (inconsistent prior statements by witnesses); that he was denied effective assistance of counsel at trial by virtue of defense counsel's undisclosed conflict of interest and, in the penalty phase, because counsel failed to object to hearsay evidence and failed to adequately prepare and present mitigation evidence; and that he was denied effective assistance of counsel on appeal, because counsel failed to assert claims based on trial counsel's conflict of interest and wrongful admission of hearsay evidence at trial. The court found some claims procedurally defaulted and others not material.
