Opinion by

SANDEE BRYAN MARION, Justice.

A jury found the defendant, Minnie Safi-nas, guilty of murder and assessed punishment at fifty years’ confinement and a $10,000 fine. In seven issues on appeal, the defendant asserts the evidence is legally and factually insufficient to support the verdict, the State used improper identification methods, evidence regarding her alibi should have been suppressed, and her sentence was determined in violation of the United States and Texas constitutions. We overrule all issues on appeal and affirm the trial court’s judgment.
