Proctor v. State

Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

1DissentMorrison, Judge

The identification of appellant in the case at bar, as I see it, was far less difficult than in Spencer v. State, Tex.Cr.App., 749 S.W.2d 466. My thirty-seven years in dealing with peace officers professionally causes me to have no doubt that Constable Coleman recognized, though belatedly, this appellant, whom he had known for twenty years.

I respectfully dissent to the reversal of this conviction.
