OPINION
CASTILLO, Justice.
Alex Sander Martins was convicted by a jury of the offense of indecent exposure and sentenced to six months confinement and a fine of $500.00. The confinement portion of the sentence was suspended and he was placed on community supervision for two years. From this conviction, Martins appeals. He alleges ineffective assistance of counsel, asserts violations of his right to confrontation by not having a Portuguese interpreter, and attacks the legal and factual sufficiency of the evidence. We affirm the conviction.
