Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Mark Milton Moore, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee
October 6, 19761976 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 1069
Summary
The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas affirmed Mark Milton Moore's capital murder conviction and death sentence, finding no reversible error in the jury selection process, the admission of fingerprint and confession evidence, the statutory construction of "in the course of a robbery," or the sufficiency of the special issue testimony at the penalty stage. Justice Roberts dissented, arguing the evidence was insufficient to support the murder‑in‑robbery finding and the psychiatric testimony on future dangerousness.
