Summary
The Court of Criminal Appeals affirmed the lower court, holding that the appellant's warrantless home arrest was lawful because the officer had consent to enter the home under Article 14.05(1) and the arrest fell within the "suspicious place" exception of Article 14.03(a)(1). The court declined to address the appellant's Fourth Amendment and Texas constitutional claims, finding them unpreserved.
