Does the standard for assessing ineffective assistance of counsel claims, announced in Strickland v. Washington, fail to protect the Sixth Amendment right to a fair trial and the Fourteenth Amendment right to due process when a trial court finds grounds of unconstitutional performance of counsel, but that same court can deny relief following a "no prejudice" analysis that relies on a trial record shaped by trial counsel's ineffective representation and the consequences of said representation?
