Office of the Attorney General by Jeffrey A. Klingfuss, attorney for appellee.

Before WALLER, C.J., DICKINSON and LAMAR, JJ.


LAMAR, Justice, for the Court.

¶ 1. Lee Darreln Nix was convicted in the Harrison County Circuit Court on two counts: Count I—touching a child for lustful purposes, and Count II—kidnapping. Nix was sentenced to ten years for each of the two counts, with the sentences to run consecutively. Nix now appeals his conviction, asserting that trial counsel was ineffective and that the verdict was against the overwhelming weight of the evidence.
