Raymond Owens, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas reversed the Court of Appeals' judgment, holding that the trial judge erred in admitting extraneous offense evidence of the appellant's alleged "system" of sexual misconduct because it did not meet the stringent similarity requirement of Rule 404(b) and was not relevant to any material fact. The case was remanded for the lower court to determine whether the error was harmless under Rule 81(b)(2).
