Kevin Lee Zimmerman, Appellant v. the State of Texas, Appellee

Summary

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed Kevin Lee Zimmerman’s capital murder conviction and death sentence, holding that the evidence supported the robbery‑murder element, that the trial court did not err in juror challenges, presumption of innocence instruction, admission of letters, photographs, and other exhibits, and that the requested jury instructions were proper. The court rejected all of appellant’s points of error, finding no preserved error and applying the appropriate standards of review. A concurring opinion disagreed with the majority’s reliance on Rezac regarding the waiver of error on the photograph exhibit. The judgment of the trial court is affirmed.
