Fred T. Durrough, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals reversed Durrough's capital murder conviction and remanded for a new trial, holding that the successive indictments and trials did not violate the Double Jeopardy Clause, that the indictment adequately charged capital murder, that the juror exclusion violated the Sixth and Fourteenth Amendments, and that the judges were not disqualified from hearing the appeal.
