HAWKINS v. STATE

No. 2-91-422-CR.

855 S.W.2d 881 (1993)

Terry HAWKINS, Appellant, v. The STATE of Texas, State.

Court of Appeals of Texas, Fort Worth.

Rehearing Denied July 13, 1993.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Stuart C. Shelton, Bowie, for appellant.

Patrick Morris, Dist. Atty., and Tim Cole, Asst., Decatur, for appellee.

Before FARRIS, LATTIMORE and WEAVER, JJ.


OPINION

FARRIS, Justice.

Terry Hawkins appeals his conviction for injury to a child by omission and complains the indictment was defective, photos of the infant attached to various life support machines were more prejudicial than probative, and he had no lawful means of removing the child from its mother. Because there is no evidence Hawkins willfully injured the child, we sustain Hawkins' fourth point of error and reverse the trial court's judgment.
