IN THE COURT OF CRIMINAL APPEALS

OF TEXAS

AP-75,363

MAX ALEXANDER SOFFAR, Appellant

v.

THE STATE OF TEXAS

ON DIRECT APPEAL
FROM CAUSE NO. 319724 IN THE 232ND DISTRICT COURT
HARRIS COUNTY

 Keasler, J., filed a concurring opinion in which Hervey, J., joined. 

CONCURRING OPINION	I join the Court's opinion with the exception of point of error twenty-seven.
Consistent with my dissenting opinion to the Court's decision to improvidently grant
rehearing in Thompson v. State, I would hold that there was no error under Maine v.
Moulton. (1)  I further urge the majority of the Court to reconsider its understanding of this case
and other Supreme Court precedent.

1.   93 S.W.3d 269, 276 (Tex. Crim. App. 2003) (Keasler, J., dissenting on reh'g); see
also Soffar, 368 F.3d at 487 (Garza J., dissenting) ("As Soffar made no incriminating
statements regarding his murder charge during the interrogation [by Bockel], Moulton, by
its own terms, is inapplicable).
