Syllabus

Appellant's assertion that trial counsel did not present mitigating evidence of her prior substance abuse and mental health issues is not supported by the record, and therefore does not support her ineffective assistance of counsel argument. Trial court properly considered this mitigating evidence, as well as the principles and purposes of sentencing under R.C. 2929.11 and the seriousness and recidivism factors under R.C. 2929.12.
