Ex parte Orian Lee Scott

Orian Lee Scott was convicted of nine offenses in three separate indictments and was sentenced to a total of 100 years’ confinement. The Court of Criminal Appeals filed and set these writ applications to decide whether his counsel was ineffective at the punishment stage of trial. Each indictment was identical except that they named different victims. In each indictment, Scott was charged with one count of possession of child pornography, one count of inducing a sexual performance by a minor, and one count of producing or promoting a sexual performance by a child. After review, the Court found Scott had not proven he received ineffective assistance of counsel at the punishment phase of his trial, and denied relief. View "Ex parte Orian Lee Scott" on Justia Law
