WI Court of Appeals – District IV

Case Name: State of Wisconsin v. Michael C. Henderson

Case No.: 2018AP1638-CR

Officials: Fitzpatrick, P.J., Graham and Nashold, JJ.

Focus: 6^th Amendment Violation

Michael Henderson appeals a judgment convicting him, after a jury trial, of one count of first-degree intentional homicide. He also appeals an order denying his motion for postconviction relief. On appeal, Henderson argues that his constitutional rights to counsel were violated during discussions with law enforcement that took place on June 10 and June 13, 2014. Henderson also argues that his confrontation rights were violated when the circuit court admitted statements written in a notebook kept by the victim. We reject these arguments and affirm the judgment and order of the circuit court.
