Publisher Description
John Naasz shot and killed his estranged wife. He was indicted for murder and pleaded guilty. A jury heard evidence on punishment. In mitigation of punishment, appellant asserted he killed his wife under the influence of sudden passion arising from an adequate cause. The jury answered "no" to appellant's special issue on sudden passion and assessed punishment at life in prison. In a single point of error, appellant contends the evidence is insufficient to support the jury's finding that appellant failed to prove he killed his wife under the influence of sudden passion arising from an adequate cause. We affirm.
