State v. Jensen - Postconviction Relief Motion Denied

The Delaware Superior Court denied Defendant Nicholas Jensen's Motion for Postconviction Relief filed August 8, 2025. Jensen challenged his 2024 guilty plea to second-degree rape, arguing ineffective assistance of counsel and that Trial Counsel failed to honor the plea agreement. The Court applied Delaware Superior Court Criminal Rule 61(i) procedural bars and the Strickland v. Washington two-prong ineffective-assistance standard. Finding no deficiency and no prejudice, the Court denied relief.
