Eighth Circuit -- Donald Moeller v. Douglas Weber

Donald Moeller v. Douglas Weber

 Where death penalty juror asks about possibility of parole and judge refers them to the verdict form which says "life imprisonment without parole," no clear violation of law.

Nonparticipation in Daubert hearing & lax challenge to soil samples were strategic choices, not ineffective assistance .

 No abuse of discretion in allowing expert to work for both sides.

Aggravating factors did not have to be in the indictment when included in a notice 8 months before trial.
