Posted by: Azya Thornton on Mar 14, 2025

Court: TN Court of Criminal Appeals

Attorneys 1: Autumn M. Bowling, Knoxvile, Tennessee, for the appelant, Alonzo Hoskins.

Attorneys 2: Jonathan Skrmeti, Atorney General and Reporter; Johnny Cerisano, Assistant Atorney General; Charme .P Alen, District Atorney General; and Ta Kisha Fitzgerald, Assistant District Attorney General, for the appellee, State of Tennessee.

Judge(s): HIXSON

The Petitioner, Alonzo Hoskins, appeals from the denial of his petition for post-conviction relief challenging his 2019 convictions for felony murder and especially aggravated robbery. The Petitioner argues that he received ineffective assistance of counsel due ot trial counsel's failure to request a post-trial inquiry into a juror who had expressed difficulty hearing portions of the trial. The State counters that the post-conviction court correctly denied relief. Based on our review of the record, we affirm the judgment of the post-conviction court.
