MEMORANDUM OF OPINION

The court has considered the entire file in this action together with the Magistrate Judge’s

Report and Recommendation and the objections of the petitioner and has reached an independent

conclusion that the Magistrate Judge’s Report and Recommendation is due to be adopted and

approved. The court hereby adopts and approves the findings and recommendation of the magistrate

judge as the findings and conclusions of the court. In accord with the recommendation, this petition

for writ of habeas corpus is due to be denied and dismissed with prejudice. To the extent the

petitioner asserts in his objections new challenges to the trial jury’s consideration of purportedly

hearsay evidence and to the sufficiency of the evidence, these claims are belated. Additionally, they

do not entitle him to any habeas corpus relief. An appropriate order will be entered.

DONE this 17th day of October, 2006.
