Description

In point of error number one appellant asks us to consider whether his right to a fair trial was abrogated by the prosecutor stating to jurors without objection from defense counsel that there is no difference between deliberate conduct and intentional conduct. In his second point of error, appellant argues that the States burden of proof was lessened in violation of the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution when the prosecutor was allowed to qualify jurors on the basis that there was no difference between a deliberate killing and an intentional killing. We will consider these two points of error together.
