OPINION

2Opinion of the Court · KeaslerKeasler, J.

PRICE, WOMACK, JOHNSON, HERVEY, HOLCOMB, and COCHRAN, JJ., joined.

In the punishment phase of Kimberly Haley’s cocaine possession trial, the State introduced evidence of Haley’s participation in an extraneous murder offense and testimony of the murder victim’s mother. Holding the evidence “insufficient” to find Haley guilty beyond a reasonable doubt of the murder, the Court of Appeals found error.
