United States of America, and v. Wesley Rene Russell

U.S. Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit
United States of America, and v. Wesley Rene Russell, 432 F.2d 547 (9th Cir. 1970)

United States of America, and v. Wesley Rene Russell

Opinion

PER CURIAM:

The order denying 28 U.S.C. § 2255 relief is affirmed.

The appellant’s own contentions about his inducement to plead guilty are completely negatived by the district judge’s statements to appellant before he was sentenced. At the time of the plea, the defendant stated that he was induced to plead guilty so that he could “go to Fort Worth to the narcotics hospital.” The judge told him he could give him no such assurances.
