OPINION
BOGGS, Circuit Judge.
An Ohio state-court jury convicted Michael Johnson of two counts of aggravated murder, each with a capital specification, for the death of his sister, Susan Brunst. One capital specification alleged that Johnson killed Brunst with prior calculation and design; the other alleged that he killed her in the course of a kidnapping or rape. The jury convicted Johnson on both counts and recommended a sentence of death. The state court of appeals affirmed the conviction and sentence. See State v. Johnson, 1992 WL 328492 (Ohio App. 9th Dist. Nov. 4,1992) (unpublished).
