Morales v. Johnson

Dist. Ct. did not err in denying defendant's habeas petition even though defendant argued that his trial counsel was ineffective for failing to properly impeach witness, who claimed that defendant attempted to convince her to provide alibi for murder charge, and for failing to call another witness to establish said alibi. Defendant failed to establish any prejudice arising out of trial counsel's alleged failures where state presented two eyewitnesses, who placed defendant at scene of crime, and where details of proposed alibi were not supported by other evidence in record.
