She argued prosecutorial misconduct due to lack of probable cause for the initial murder charge and ineffective assistance of counsel for failing to file a bond motion. The appellate court affirmed the motion court's judgment, finding the prosecutor had probable cause for the murder charge and that plea counsel's decision not to seek bond was a matter of trial strategy that did not render the guilty plea involuntary.","primaryTopic":"criminal-procedure","topicSlugs":["criminal-procedure","appellate-procedure","standard-of-review"],"outcomeNorm":"affirmed","officialSourceUrl":"https://www.courts.mo.gov/file.jsp?id=217893","detailUrl":"https://ott.law/missouri-courts/opinions/kimberly-k-henderson-appellant-v-state-of-missouri-respondent-d38380","relatedPracticeAreas":[{"slug":"criminal-law","label":"Criminal Law","href":"/practice-areas/criminal-law","score":36,"source":"tag","evidence":["tag: criminal-law","topic: criminal-procedure","text: state of missouri","text: conviction"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/criminal-law"},{"slug":"litigation","label":"Civil Litigation","href":"/practice-areas/litigation","score":12,"source":"topic","evidence":["topic: appellate-procedure"],"url":"https://ott.law/practice-areas/litigation"}],"role":"appellant"}]}
