Gordon claims that: (1) the trial court erroneously re-instructed the jury on the charge of second-degree recklessly endangering safety, in response to the jury's request; (2) his trial counsel was ineffective for conceding his guilt to the charge of disorderly conduct while armed; (3) the trial court erroneously instructed the jury regarding Wis. Stat.
Gordon was later sentenced to nine months in prison for violating the domestic abuse injunction, six months for disorderly conduct while armed, and two years for second-degree recklessly endangering safety, all to be served consecutive to one another.
Rather, Gordon's counsel passed judgment on the guilt of his client in arguing: "Obviously running around the neighborhood with two knives is disorderly conduct and it is disorderly conduct while armed." This statement is clearly the functional equivalent of a guilty plea, in that defense counsel conceded the basis for Gordon's conviction on that charge.
