Newton v. State

How courts have described this case

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

• concluding that the trial court did not abuse its discretion by admitting extraneous- offense evidence where half of the factors favored exclusion and the other half favored admission
• explaining that extraneous offense was^ sufficiently similar, in part, because both victims were same age when abuse started and because abuse lasted for several years
• determining that inherent probative value of remote but similar extraneous offense weighed “only slightly in favor of admissibility”
• holding that while extraneous- offense evidence was remote, it was nevertheless probative and that the State’s need for such evidence was “considerable” when there were no eyewitnesses and no physical evidence available to corroborate child-sex-abuse complainant’s testimony
• determining that inherent probative value of remote but similar extraneous offense weighed “slightly in favor of admissibility” despite 25-year gap between extraneous offense and charged offense
• acknowledging that “sexually related bad acts and misconduct involving children are inherently inflammatory
