BENTON, Judge.

The jury convicted James Wilson Chambers of capital murder, and assessed the punishment as death; the circuit court imposed the death sentence. Two earlier convictions for the same murder have been reversed. State v. Chambers, 671 S.W.2d 781 (Mo. banc 1984); Chambers v. Armontrout, 885 F.2d 1318 (8th Cir.1989), aff'd en banc, 907 F.2d 825 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 498 U.S. 950, 111 S.Ct. 369, 112 L.Ed.2d 331 (1990). Chambers filed a motion for post-conviction relief under Rule 29.15. In a consolidated appeal, Chambers raises 29 points of error. This Court affirms.
