How later courts describe this case

  • harmless error when misinformation at Rule 11 hearing did not create expectation of lesser penalty than actually received
  • “there is no merit to the argument the identification process was unduly suggestive because the photos did not match the victim’s description of her assailant”
  • “This court will not second-guess trial tactics that are rationally-based”
  • standard of review is uncertain
