John Henry Sparrow, III v. State of Tennessee

This is an appeal as of right from a denial of post-conviction relief. The Defendant, John Henry Sparrow, III, was convicted by jury verdict of attempted especially aggravated kidnaping and received a twelve year sentence. This Court upheld the Defendant's conviction on direct appeal. See State v. John Henry Sparrow, III, No. M2000-03238-CCA-R3-CD, 2002 WL 560958 (Tenn. Crim. App., Nashville, April 16, 2002) (not for citation). The Defendant subsequently filed a petition for post-conviction relief, which was denied. The Defendant now appeals to this Court, raising the single issue of ineffective assistance of counsel. We affirm the judgment of the post-conviction court.
