Gonzales v. State (477 S.W.3d 475, 2015)

OPINION

LEE ANN DAUPHINOT, JUSTICE

A jury convicted Appellant Pablo Gonzales, Jr. of one count of aggravated sexual assault of a child and three counts of indecency with a child, charged, in four separate indictments. The jury assessed his punishment at life imprisonment in the sexual assault case, twenty years’ imprisonment in each of the indecency cases, and a $10,000 fine in each case. The trial court sentenced • him accordingly. Appellant brings four issues on appeal. He does not contest the sufficiency of the evidence supporting his guilt. Instead, he challenges the admission - of outcry testimony, evidence that he did not waive extradition, and evidence of extraneous sexual offenses. ■ Because the trial court committed no reversible error, we affirm the trial court’s judgments.
