OPINION
HINOJOSA, Justice.
A jury found appellant, Gilbert Chavero, Jr., guilty of the offense of capital murder, and the trial court assessed his punishment at life imprisonment. In five issues, appellant contends: (1) the evidence is insufficient to support his conviction, (2) the statement he gave to police was taken in violation of his Fifth and Sixth Amendment rights to counsel, (3) he received ineffective assistance of counsel, (4) the prosecutor engaged in improper jury argument, and (5) his extrajudicial confession was not properly corroborated. We affirm.
