OPINION
2Per curiam
Petitioner Darick Demorris Walker was convicted by a Virginia state court jury of capital murder for the killings of Stanley Beale and Clarence Threat, use of firearm in the commission of a felony, and two counts of burglary. He was sentenced to death on the capital murder count and to prison terms on the other counts. The Supreme Court of Virginia affirmed Walker’s conviction and death sentence on direct appeal and denied Walker’s petition for state habeas relief. The district court dismissed Walker’s federal habeas petition and declined to grant a Certificate of Appealability (COA).
