OPINION

PHILLIPS, Judge.

This is an appeal from a conviction of aggravated robbery. Punishment was assessed at imprisonment for 12 years.

Appellant contends that his right against self-incrimination was violated by the prosecutor's references to his post-arrest silence. Appellant also contends that the prosecutor improperly bolstered his own witness, misstated the law in his jury argument, and argued matters that were outside the record.
