  • holding that the defendant insufficiently pled the Brady claim because he failed to assert how the evidence was material or how he was prejudiced by the State's nondisclosure
  • holding Brady claim insufficiently pled where defendant presented no factual basis for assertion that disputed item ever existed or contained exculpatory information
  • holding that where trial counsel was the only witness at evidentiary hearing and he testified about his efforts to call witnesses on defendant’s behalf, defendant’s failure to present any testimony to support his allegations resulted in a failure to prove ineffective assistance claim
  • reviewing de novo the application of the law to the facts on a claim of ineffective assistance of trial counsel
  • “[W]hen an attorney has made a tactical decision not to present mitigating evidence after a full investigation, counsel is not ineffective. Moreover, an attorney’s reasoned decision not to present evidence of dubious mitigating value does not constitute ineffective assistance.”
