OPINION

FARRIS, Justice.

Appellant, Walter Alonzo Buckner, Jr., was convicted of the offense of aggravated sexual assault. See TEX.PENAL CODE ANN. secs. 22.011 and 22.021(a)(5) (Vernon Supp.1986). Punishment was assessed by the jury at ten years confinement. Appellant complains of the admission of the videotaped statement of the child witness, of the failure of the trial court to submit a jury charge on the lesser-included offense of indecency with a child, and of the prosecutor’s argument during the punishment phase of the trial.

We reverse and remand.
