December 21, 19831983 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 1271

The Court affirmed the aggravated robbery convictions, holding that the trial court properly admitted testimony about a prior robbery by Williams as admissible extraneous offense evidence because its probative value outweighed any prejudicial effect. Justice Clinton, in a concurring opinion, cautioned against future misapplication of the rule.
