  2. “■ His 'broad claim that he suffers from bipolar disorder ... is insufficient to establish he was incompetent to knowingly and voluntarily enter his guilty "pleas, (in■ternal citation omitted). [O]ur review of the record supports a finding that Koenig’s guilty pleas were knowingly, intelligently, and voluntarily made. The transcript from the change of plea hearing reveals the district court very carefully complied with the mandates of W.R.Cr.P. 11____[T]he district court thoroughly advised Koenig of his rights and the ramifications of his decision to plead guilty. Koenig indicated his understanding of the charges and their attendant penalties, the -consequences of his guilty pleas, and the rights he would relinquish if he entered those pleas. We are satisfied Koenig was true to his word when he stated- to the court he was -entering his pleas voluntarily and of his own free will.”
