Billy Hill v. State of Tennessee

A Knox County jury found the Petitioner, Billy Hill, guilty of second degree murder. He
later filed a petition for post-conviction relief alleging that his trial counsel was ineffective
by advising him not to testify at trial. The post-conviction court denied relief, finding that
trial counsel’s advice was based on a sound strategy developed after thoroughly
investigating the case. On appeal, we respectfully affirm the judgment of the postconviction
court.
