Syllabus

Guilty plea waived defective indictment effective assistance of counsel self-sabotage diligent sales talk sentence. - By pleading guilty, appellant waived any argument that his indictment was defective or that the state failed to prove an element of the offense. Counsel was not ineffective by preventing appellant from self-sabotaging a plea agreement or by failing to engage in diligent sales talk with the trial court to mitigate the sentence. Appellate court's limited review of felony sentences prevents modification of a sentence where the records supports that the trial court adequately considered the purposes of sentencing set forth in R.C. 2929.11 and the seriousness and recidivism factors in R.C. 2929.12.
