Richard Wayne Jones, Appellant v. State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Court affirmed the conviction, holding that the trial court did not err in excluding the grand‑jury testimony because the appellant failed to specifically offer the admissible portions, and likewise affirmed the trial court’s rulings on all other points of error ranging from chain of custody to double jeopardy and evidentiary objections. A concurring judge agreed with the majority’s conclusions but reiterated the proper application of the former‑testimony exception.
