Syllabus

R.C. 2903.11(A)(2), felonious assault, criminal damaging or endangering, R.C. 2909.06(A)(1), domestic violence, R.C. 2929.25(A), manifest weight of the evidence, right to confrontation and cross examination, ineffective assistance of counsel. The trial court did not violate the defendant's right to confrontation and cross examination because it permitted defense counsel to question the victim extensively about her relationship with her girlfriend and her license to carry and conceal a weapon. The defendant's convictions were not against the manifest weight of the evidence because the evidence established that the defendant fired a gun at least six times in the direction of the victim. The defendant did not establish that his counsel's performance was deficient for failing to call other witnesses and for failing to argue that the victim may have committed the crimes instead of him.
