““Trial counsel cannot be held ineffective for failing to track down a witness whose whereabouts are unknown. [Cit.]” Morris v. State, 257 Ga. App. 169, 172 (2) ( 570 SE2d 619 ) (2002). Here, not only was the witness’s location unknown, but the witness’s identity was unknown to trial counsel. Under those circumstances, we find no error in the trial court’s rejection of this claim of ineffectiveness.”
