April 2, 20142014 Tex. Crim. App. LEXIS 438

Summary

The Texas Court of Criminal Appeals reversed the Dallas Court of Appeals and affirmed the trial court’s conviction for aggravated sexual assault, holding that the indictment’s two paragraphs alleged alternative means of the same offense and that the jury’s lack of unanimity on which means were used did not cause egregious harm.
