Caruthers Alexander, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court reversed the capital murder conviction and remanded for a new trial because the trial court improperly admitted extraneous misconduct evidence to impeach the defendant, and held that the admission was not harmless. The Court also affirmed that the evidence was sufficient to support the murder conviction, the aggravated rape element, and the special issue finding of future dangerousness.
