Lesley Lee Gosch, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas affirmed Lesley Lee Gosch's capital murder conviction and death sentence, holding that the accomplice testimony was sufficiently corroborated, the extraneous evidence of his federal firearms violation was admissible, his counsel was not ineffective, and the Texas capital sentencing scheme is constitutional. Justice Clinton dissented, relying on his earlier dissent in Ex Parte Bower.
