Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the capital murder conviction and death sentence, holding that the trial court did not err in refusing a voluntary manslaughter charge, that the evidence supported the jury's finding that the defendant's conduct was unreasonable, and that the trial judge properly exercised discretion in jury selection and in ruling on the prosecutor's arguments.
