Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas
Bobby Adame, Appellant v. the State of Texas
March 6, 20022002 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 43
Summary
The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals held that evidence showing a BB gun could cause serious bodily injury was sufficient to support the jury's deadly weapon finding, reversing the Court of Appeals and affirming the trial court. Two concurring opinions agreed with the result but criticized the majority's reasoning on the importance of the weapon being loaded.
