Kehoe argues she received ineffective assistance from trial counsel when counsel failed to 1) move to suppress the incriminating statements she made to police while in the hospital without first receiving Miranda warnings, 2) secure a different, more remote change of venue, and 3) raise the issue of Kehoe’s competency to stand trial. Michelle Kehoe appeals from the denial of her application for postconviction relief (PCR), following her 2009 convictions for murder in the first degree, attempted murder, and child endangerment resulting in serious injury. Considered by Vaitheswaran, P.J., and Potterfield and Doyle, JJ.
