Thomas M. Goss v. State of Tennessee

A Moore County jury convicted the Petitioner, Thomas M. Goss, of one count of rape and one count of aggravated burglary, and the trial court sentenced him to an effective sentence of twelve years in the Tennessee Department of Correction. The petitioner filed a petition for post-conviction relief, claiming that he received the ineffective assistance of counsel. After a hearing, the post-conviction court denied relief, and the petitioner now appeals. After a thorough review of the record and applicable law, we affirm the judgment of the post-conviction court.
