Corey Middleton v. State of Indiana
32A01-1603-PC-592
Post conviction. Affirms denial of petition for post-conviction relief. While Corey Middleton’s defense attorney used the word ‘Negro’ to describe him during voir dire, the offending language does not entitle him to post-conviction relief because of the considerable evidence against him that led to his conviction and 40-year sentence on drug and gun charges. Middleton was also not entitled to PCR when his attorney, who has since been disbarred, failed to inform him of a plea agreement that Middleton said he would have accepted or on other grounds.
