Description
Appellant was indicted for murder, and a jury found him incompetent to stand trial. Approximately three months later, he was adjudged competent, and the case proceeded to trial before the court. Appellant waived his constitutional rights and agreed to stipulate that the States witnesses would testify that the facts alleged in the indictment were true and that the determination of the use of a deadly weapon would be made by the court. He pled not guilty based upon the affirmative defense of insanity. The trial court convicted appellant of murder, made an affirmative finding of a deadly weapon, and assessed punishment at 45 years confinement.
