Michael Durwood Griffith, Appellant v. the State of Texas

Summary

The Court affirmed the conviction and death sentence, finding no reversible error in the trial court's decisions on twelve points of error, including suppression of evidence, expert funding, admissibility of expert testimony, victim impact evidence, and parole‑related instructions. Separate opinions dissent on the expert‑funding issue and critique the majority's handling of victim‑impact evidence.
