Heading: Administration of drugs to the defendant.

Text: ¶ 67. This issue was raised in the brief filed by pro bono counsel. As discussed previously, Brown makes no showing that he was unable to assist in his defense. The supplemental brief mistakenly relies on a case in which a defendant was given anti-psychotic drugs over his objection. Riggins v. Nevada, 504 U.S. 127, 112 S.Ct. 1810, 118 L.Ed.2d 479 (1992). There is nothing in the present record to suggest that Brown was treated for his headache and stomach trouble over objection. Further, the issue was capable of determination on direct appeal and is procedurally barred from further review. Miss.Code Ann. § 99-39-21(1).
