Knowledge D. WILSON, Appellant, v. STATE of Missouri, Respondent.

WD 87882

Decided: June 16, 2026

Before Division Three: Thomas N. Chapman, Presiding Judge, Karen King Mitchell, Judge, and Janet Sutton, Judge

Rosemary E. Percival, Kansas City, Mo, for Appellant. Nathan J. Aquino, Jefferson City, MO, for Respondent.

ORDER

Knowledge Wilson appeals from the judgment of the Boone County Circuit Court denying his Rule 29.15 motion for post-conviction relief following an evidentiary hearing. In his sole point on appeal, he contends that the motion court clearly erred in denying his motion which asserts that trial counsel was ineffective in failing to question the jurors whether they could be fair and impartial if they came to believe he was a gang member. Because a published opinion would have no precedential value, a memorandum explaining the reason for this decision is provided to the parties. The judgment is affirmed. Rule 84.16(b).
