Posted by: Karen Belcher on Oct 15, 2019

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1:

Matthew J. Crigger (on appeal), Brentwood, Tennessee; and Andrew Self (at hearing), Shelbyville, Tennessee, for the appellant, Richard Wayne Peacock, Jr.

Attorneys 2:

Herbert H. Slatery III, Attorney General and Reporter; Jonathan H. Wardle, Assistant Attorney General; Robert J. Carter, District Attorney General; and John Cawley, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): WILLIAMS

The Petitioner, Richard Wayne Peacock, Jr., appeals the post-conviction court’s denial of his petition for post-conviction relief in which he challenged his conviction for initiating the process to manufacture methamphetamine. On appeal, the Petitioner alleges that he received ineffective assistance of counsel based on trial counsel’s failure to negotiate a more favorable plea. After a review of the record and applicable law, we affirm the post- conviction court’s judgment.
