• finding PCR applicant demonstrated he was prejudiced by counsel's failure to withdraw his plea because the record showed his \original vehemence\ in pursuing a trial
• finding counsel deficient for failing to draw the plea court's attention to the terms of a plea agreement and subsequently move to withdraw his client's plea after the State breached the terms of the agreement
