A jury found Ralph D. Armstrong guilty of first degree murder and first degree sexual assault, and a Wisconsin trial court sentenced Armstrong to life imprisonment plus sixteen years. The Wisconsin Supreme Court affirmed Armstrong’s convictions. State v. Armstrong, 110 Wis.2d 555, 329 N.W.2d 386, cert. denied, 461 U.S. 946, 103 S.Ct. 2125, 77 L.Ed.2d 1304 (1983). Armstrong then petitioned for a writ of habeas corpus in the district court pursuant to 28 U.S.C. § 2254. The district court denied the petition, and we affirm.
