Description
Concurring Opinion by Justice Grant OPINION B. J. Franklin appeals from his conviction for the offense of aggravated assault by threat with a deadly weapon. He was found guilty by a jury, and his punishment, enhanced, was assessed at imprisonment for ninety-nine years. Franklin contends that his conviction is void according to statute and contends that it violates the double jeopardy clause of the Fifth Amendment to the United States Constitution. He further contends that the trial court erred by admitting hearsay evidence, by allowing a witness to testify in such a manner as to violate his right to confrontation, and by failing to grant his request that the jury be charged on a lesser included offense.
