United States Seventh Circuit
Simelton v. Frank, 05-2227
Conviction and sentence for two counts of sexual assault are affirmed where: 1) the court was reasonable in relying on defendant's statements during a guilty plea in determining that the plea was made knowingly, voluntarily and intelligently; and 2) any confusion about defendant's education level was irrelevant since he suffered no impairment.
