Description
Edward Zakrzewski was sentenced to death for the murder of his wife and two young children. This Court affirmed his death sentences on appeal. See Zakrzewski v. State, 717 So. 2d 488, 490 (Fla. 1998). Now in post-conviction proceedings, Zakrzewski appeals the trial court order denying his motion for post-conviction relief after an evidentiary hearing. *fn1 The four issues raised on appeal are whether (1) his lawyers in the penalty phase provided ineffective assistance of counsel by failing to object to certain closing arguments; (2) his lawyers were ineffective for failing to move to suppress evidence; (3) his guilty pleas were involuntary and should be set aside; and (4) his death sentence is unconstitutional based on Ring v. Arizona, 536 U.S. 584 (2002). We conclude that no error occurred in the trial court's denial of post-conviction relief in this case and therefore affirm the trial court's order.
