No. 49125.

518 S.W.2d 378 (1975)

Russell Glen TORES, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, Appellee.

Court of Criminal Appeals of Texas.

February 5, 1975.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Douglas H. Parks, Dallas, for appellant.

Henry Wade, Dist. Atty., W. T. Westmoreland, Jr., Asst. Dist. Atty., Dallas, and Jim D. Vollers, State's Atty., Austin, for the State.


OPINION

DOUGLAS, Judge.

This is an appeal from a conviction for murder. Punishment was assessed at life. This is a companion to the case of Wood v. State, 515 S.W.2d 300 (Tex.Cr.App. 1974).

Most of appellant's complaints are based on his contention that he was illegally arrested, and therefore evidence found and his fingerprints and his confession taken after his arrest could not be used against him.
