Armstrong v. State

OPINION

ERWIN, Justice.

Appellant, Polee Armstrong, appeals from a conviction by jury verdict of manslaughter in connection with the death of his wife, Corrine Armstrong. The central issue at trial concerned the cause of her death. On appeal appellant complains of deficiency in proof on that issue, contends that the trial court erred in admitting photographs of the deceased, and alleges prejudice from certain comments made by the district attorney to the jury during closing argument and to the trial judge prior to sentencing.
