Opinion









IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS




NO. 74,060


QUINTIN PHILLIPPE JONES, Appellant


v.



THE STATE OF TEXAS




ON DIRECT APPEAL

FROM TARRANT COUNTY


Womack, J., filed a dissenting opinion in which Johnson, J., joined.



With all respect to the Members of the Court who have decided otherwise, I would not conclude, beyond a reasonable doubt, that the constitutional violation in admitting the appellant's confessions to two additional murders at the punishment stage of this capital trial did not contribute to the jury's verdict for capital punishment. I would sustain the appellant's first point, affirm the judgment of guilt, and remand this case for a new punishment hearing.
