William Bryant v. State of Tennessee

Much aggrieved of his convictions by a Obion County Circuit Court jury of three counts of rape of a child, the petitioner, William Bryant, filed a timely pro se petition for post-conviction relief alleging his convictions resulted from an unconstitutional jury and the ineffective assistance of counsel. Following the appointment of counsel, amendment to the petition, and a full evidentiary hearing, the post-conviction court ruled that the petitionerfailed to prove his allegations by clear and convincing evidence and denied relief. Discerning no error, we affirm the order of the post-conviction court.
