Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

Jimmy Webb Todd, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

May 7, 19801980 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 1192

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas affirmed Jimmy Webb Todd Webb's conviction for aggravated rape and the life sentence imposed. It rejected all ten grounds of error raised by the appellant, holding that the trial court acted within its discretion on issues of judicial recusal, admission of extraneous evidence, indictment variance, authentication of pen‑packet records, and various alleged prosecutorial improprieties. The opinion relied on established Texas authority to conclude that no reversible error occurred.
