Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Eddie James Ward, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee
November 23, 19711971 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 1531
Summary
The Court affirmed Eddie James Ward's robbery conviction, holding that the pre‑trial photographic identification and lineup were not so suggestive as to violate due process and that the in‑court identifications were of independent origin. All other evidentiary and procedural challenges were found harmless or proper, and the evidence was sufficient to support the verdict.
