Terry L. Warren appealed the denial of his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief, arguing his trial counsel was ineffective for failing to submit a self-defense instruction based on justification for using deadly force to protect against a forcible felony. The motion court denied relief after an evidentiary hearing. The appellate court affirmed, concluding Warren failed to establish prejudice because the jury likely found him to be the initial aggressor or committing domestic assault, which would preclude self-defense regardless of the specific instruction.
