Jasen Shane Busby, Appellant v. the State of Texas

Summary

The Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the conviction and death sentence, holding that the trial court did not err in denying a change of venue, in allowing peremptory challenges after voir dire, in the counsel's strategy, in admitting evidence obtained from a warrantless arrest and searches, in refusing to appoint additional expert witnesses, and in rejecting the appellant's parole‑eligibility and death‑penalty constitutional challenges. A concurring opinion emphasized the statutory basis for the venue ruling.
