Magana v. State
By Third District, at Austin Texas Court of Appeals
- Release Date: 2005-08-31
- Genre: Law
Description
A jury found appellant, Pablo Infante Magana, guilty of possession with intent to deliver cocaine, weighing at least 400 grams, and the trial court assessed his punishment at twenty years in prison. We determine (1) whether delay in obtaining a Spanish-speaking officer to explain the consent to search form, after appellant was stopped for a traffic offense, rendered appellants consent the suppressible fruit of an unlawful detention, and (2) whether prosecutorial argument improperly struck at appellant over the shoulders of his counsel. We affirm.
