Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas

A court of appeals' decision affirming a sentence for possession of child pornography is reversed where the court of appeals erred in holding that defendant's written waiver of his right to confront and cross-examine witnesses pursuant to Texas Code of Criminal Procedure Article 1.15, which was made at the time of his guilty plea, applied to the punishment stage.
