SC affirmed Simmons’ appeal of the TC’s denial of his RCr 11.42 motion alleging ineffective assistance of counsel. Simmons was originally convicted of multiple counts of murder, rape, and kidnapping. He was sentenced to death and his convictions were affirmed on direct appeal. Here, the Court rejected all 15 allegations of error which Simmons claimed.
