Marquis Ingram appeals his conviction of armed robbery and possession of a firearm during the commission of a crime, as well as the denial of his motion for new trial. On appeal, he contends the trial court erred by denying his motion to suppress his custodial statement, that his trial counsel was ineffective, and that the evidence was insufficient to support the verdict. For the reasons that follow, we affirm.1

Construed in favor of the verdict, the evidence shows on the morning of November 18, 2009, Ingram, co-defendant Alexander Williams, and another man entered Jason Pope’s Stone Mountain apartment under false pretenses. Williams put a pistol to Pope’s head, and he and the other two men hit Pope with pistols, tied Pope up, and stated that they wanted “money and . . . weed,” which Pope denied having. Ingram and his co-defendants then took many items that belonged to Pope and his roommate, including Pope’s television, jacket, cell phone, and laptop computer. At trial, Pope identified Ingram as one of the men and testified that he had seen Ingram in the neighborhood on a prior occasion.
