Missouri Court of Appeals, Southern District / Feb 3, 2026
CARL CAMERON FERGUSON, Appellant v. STATE OF MISSOURI, Respondent
Citation: Miller v. State, 558 S.W.3d 15
The appellate court affirmed the trial court's denial of post-conviction relief, finding that Ferguson failed to establish ineffective assistance of counsel for trial counsel's failure to call witnesses in his favor. The court concluded that Ferguson did not proffer the names of any viable defense witnesses and that witness selection constitutes trial strategy.
