961 S.W.2d 739 (1998)

331 Ark. 326

Edward Sarbia REGALADO, Appellant, v. STATE of Arkansas, Appellee.

Supreme Court of Arkansas.

February 5, 1998.


Attorney(s) appearing for the Case

Greg N. Robinson, Pine Bluff, for appellant.

Winston Bryant, Atty. Gen., Kelly Terry, Asst. Atty. Gen., Little Rock, for appellee.


BROWN, Justice.

The appellant, Edward Sarbia Regalado, was convicted of the first-degree murder of his wife, Gloria Regalado, and was sentenced to life in prison. He raises only one point on appeal—that the trial court erred in allowing evidence of Regalado's incarceration and escape. We hold that the evidence was admissible and that the prejudice from this testimony did not substantially outweigh its probative value. We affirm.
