Sterling v. State

In Sterling v. State, 830 S.W.2d 114 (Tex. Crim. App. 1992), the prosecutor argued: "...if you don't answer those questions the way this evidence showed you they had to be answered, both of them 'yes,' you're going to participate with Gary Sterling in taking another life." Id. at 119. The Court held that the argument, insofar as it alleged that the defendant would commit another murder in the future, constituted a reasonable deduction from the evidence. Sterling, 830 S.W.2d at 120-121.
