How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

  • holding that fact that jury also heard testimony regarding matter depicted in photograph “does not reduce the relevance of the visual depiction”
  • holding that appellant waived issue for review by failing to adequately brief why his unpreserved complaint should be considered for the first time on appeal
  • holding that gruesome photographs were probative to show the full extent of the injuries appellant inflicted on the victim
  • concluding that “gruesome” photographs of child victim’s injuries were “highly probative” to show full extent of her injuries
  • holding that, if verbal testimony is relevant, photographs of the same are also relevant
  • concluding that the trial court did not err by admitting photographs of the decedent’s rib, skullcap, and brain, all visible due to the decedent’s autopsy, because they were necessary to show the injuries sustained
