Williams v. State
Annotate this CaseDefendant and co-defendant were convicted of felony murder, aggravated assault, and two counts of possession of a firearm during the commission of a felony. Defendant was separately convicted of theft by receiving a Toyota Highlander. Defendant appealed his conviction, asserting ineffective assistance of counsel. The court held that counsel was not ineffective in failing to exclude an out-of-court identification of defendant; trial counsel was not ineffective in failing to call two witnesses to testify for defendant at trial; counsel was not ineffective in failing to object to the State's oral requests to charge the jury on testimony of a single witness and parties to a crime; and trial counsel was not ineffective in failing to object to and move to exclude the testimony regarding a State's witness's threatening conduct. Accordingly, the judgment was affirmed.
