Description
Kimberly Yvonne Meeks appeals her conviction by jury trial of capital murder of Paul Blackmon. Meeks raises six issues on appeal. Meeks argues the trial court erred in 1) sustaining the State's objections to extraneous unlawful acts committed by witnesses Sheila Skelton and Veronica Skelton, 2) failing to charge the jury that the testimony of Veronica Skelton required corroboration if the jury found she was an accomplice, and 3) failing to charge the jury that the testimony of Veronica Skelton required corroboration because she was an accomplice as a matter of law. In points of error (4) and (5), Meeks contends there is factually and legally insufficient evidence to support the jury's finding that the murder was committed in the course of a robbery. In her last point of error, Meeks argues the trial court erred by denying her request for a jury instruction on the lesser-included offense of murder. We affirm the judgment of the trial court.
