Opinion

In The Court of Appeals Sixth Appellate District of Texas at Texarkana

No. 06-18-00023-CR

RANDALL GREENOUGH, Appellant

V.

THE STATE OF TEXAS, Appellee

On Appeal from the 402nd District Court Wood County, Texas Trial Court No. 23,425-2017

Before Morriss, C.J., Moseley and Burgess, JJ. Memorandum Opinion by Chief Justice Morriss MEMORANDUM OPINION Randall Greenough was charged in six separate indictments with four charges of

aggravated sexual assault of a child and two charges of indecency with a child by sexual contact.1

A jury found him guilty of all six offenses. As to each conviction, the jury assessed Greenough’s

punishment as ninety-nine years’ confinement in prison, along with a $10,000.00 fine. The trial

court ordered Greenough’s sentences to run consecutively.

Greenough has filed a single brief in which he raises issues common to all of his appeals,2

maintaining that (1) the State’s argument was egregious and that the trial court’s instruction to

disregard his comments did not cure the alleged defect, and (2) he was subjected to double jeopardy

when the jury returned multiple guilty verdicts on offenses that stemmed from the same act. We

addressed these issues in detail in our opinion of this date in Greenough’s appeal in cause number

06-18-00020-CR. For the reasons stated therein, we affirm the trial court’s judgment in this cause

number.

The trial court’s judgment is affirmed.

Do Not Publish 1 In this case, the State indicted Greenough, in trial court cause number 23,425-2017, with the offense of indecency with a child by sexual contact, alleging that on July 30, 2015, Greenough “did then and there intentionally and knowingly engage in sexual contact with [Ginny], a child younger than 17 years of age, and not the spouse of the defendant, by contact between the hand of the defendant and the breast of [Ginny], with the intent to arouse and gratify the sexual desire of defendant.” 2 Greenough appeals from four convictions of sexual assault of a child and two convictions of indecency with a child in our cause numbers 06-18-00019-CR through 06-18-00024-CR. 2
