David Wayne McKay, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas affirmed David Wayne McKay's capital murder conviction, rejecting all twenty grounds of error raised. It held that the juror was not improperly excused, that extraneous evidence of a robbery was admissible for motive, and that various evidentiary rulings were proper. The Court also found no reversible error in the prosecutor's arguments or in the handling of the arrest and related evidence.
