Description
1 Gary D. Schwigel appeals a judgment convicting him of one count of sexual assault of a child under thirteen and an order denying his post-conviction motion to allow him to withdraw his plea. Schwigel pled guilty to the charge but asserted a defense of not guilty by reason of mental disease or defect (NGI). Schwigel contends that his intellectual deficits and statements at the plea hearing misallocating the burden of proof undermined his plea. He argues in the alternative that the court should not have accepted his plea because, he claims, it found him incompetent. Finally, Schwigel asserts that his jury waiver was invalid because the court misinformed him as to jury unanimity in the responsibility phase. None of his arguments persuades us. We affirm.
