Criminal Procedure
Plea withdrawal
Alex D. Keeton appeals judgments convicting him of second-degree reckless homicide, with use of a dangerous weapon, and solicitation to commit first-degree intentional homicide. He also appeals an order denying his motion for postconviction relief. Keeton contends that he should be allowed to withdraw his guilty pleas because he was denied phone access while incarcerated prior to his plea, which prevented him from learning that his family had located a witness who would exonerate him. We affirm. This opinion will not be published.
