Golden, Assistant Attorney General, Daytona Beach, for Appellee. PER CURIAM. Shamiekka Ford appeals her conviction for second-degree murder. The only issues raised on this direct appeal relate to the alleged ineffectiveness of her trial counsel. Because the record does not establish ineffective assistance, we affirm. Gore v.
