Description
A jury convicted Billy Dean Walker, Jr. of six counts of indecency with a child and assessed his punishment at twenty years imprisonment and a $10,000 fine on each count. Walker contends in five points that: (1) the court erred by failing to dismiss the indictment with prejudice because he was not tried within 180 days after requesting a transfer to Texas from Tennessee under article III of the Interstate Agreement on Detainers Act; (2) he received ineffective assistance of counsel because counsel failed to request such a dismissal; (3) the court erred by ordering his Texas sentences to run consecutively with his Tennessee sentences; (4) the court abused its discretion by admitting evidence of extraneous offenses; and (5) his right to jury trial and his right to due process were violated under Apprendi v. New Jersey and its progeny because the jury was not asked to determine whether his Texas sentences should run consecutively with his Tennessee sentences. We will affirm.
