Opinion
BISHOP, J.
The petitioner, Theo Sargent, appeals from the judgment of the habeas court denying his petition for a writ of habeas corpus. On appeal, the petitioner claims that the court improperly (1) denied his claim of actual innocence, (2) denied his claim of ineffective assistance of counsel and (3) failed to admit relevant evidence. We affirm the judgment of the habeas court.
This court previously set forth the underlying facts of this case in State v. Sargent, 87 Conn. App. 24, 864 A.2d 20, cert. denied, 273 Conn. 912, 870 A.2d 1082 (2005), and they were recited by the habeas court.…
