Albury v. State

Summary

The court affirmed Albury’s convictions, holding that his challenge to two jurors was not preserved, the trial court properly admitted the post-incision autopsy photograph, and his ineffective-assistance claims failed. The photograph was relevant and the trial court implicitly performed the required prejudice-versus-probative-value balancing. Counsel’s decisions not to seek further juror questioning and not to request a voluntary-manslaughter instruction did not establish constitutionally deficient performance or prejudice.
