Leonel Torres Herrera, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court affirmed the capital murder conviction and death sentence, rejecting all eight of appellant Torres Herrera's alleged errors concerning identification procedures, a dying declaration, Miranda‑related statements, journalist testimony, and extraneous shotgun evidence. The Court held that the identification methods were not unduly suggestive, the dying declaration met the statutory exception, the post‑Miranda statements were admissible, and any error was harmless beyond a reasonable doubt.
