Criminal Procedure – joinder — ineffective assistance

Jermaine L. Rogers appeals the judgment convicting him of numerous sex crimes involving two victims, P.R. and K.D., including human trafficking, sexual assault, attempted pandering, and child enticement. He also appeals the order denying his postconviction motion. Rogers presents three arguments on appeal. First, he argues that the trial court erroneously exercised its discretion in granting the State’s motion to join the cases regarding P.R. and K.D. Second, he argues that trial counsel was ineffective. Third, he argues that the evidence for three of the eleven counts of which he was convicted was insufficient. We affirm. Not recommended for publication in the official reports.
