Reyes v. State

OPINION

Opinion by:

REBECCA SIMMONS, Justice.

Appellant Vicente Reyes was convicted by a jury on five counts of aggravated sexual assault and indecency with a child. On appeal, Reyes argues that the trial court erred in: (1) designating the outcry witness; (2) admitting the testimony of the State’s medical expert; and (3) failing to hold a pretrial taint hearing regarding the outcry testimony and the child’s testimony. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
