OPINION
FRIEDLANDER, Judge.
William B. Koons 1 appeals the denial of his petition for post-conviction relief (PCR), by which he challenged his two convictions for child molesting, 2 both class A felonies. Koons presents the following consolidated, restated issues for review:
1. Did the State provide sufficient evi-denee to support the conclusion that Koons threatened the use of deadly force to facilitate the crime of child molesting?

3. Did Koons receive ineffective assistance of counsel?
We affirm.
