LEE ANN DAUPHINOT, Justice,
dissenting
I cannot join the conscientious majority because in order to convict a defendant of a criminal offense, the jury must unanimously find the defendant guilty of the same offense beyond.a reasonable doubt. The .majority appears to agree with the State’s jury argument stating that unanimity is not required. I must therefore respectfully dissent for the • reasons I explained in my dissent to the majority in Bundy v. State.1

. 280 S.W.3d 425, 436-40 (Tex App.-Fort Worth -2009, pet. ref d) (Dauphinot, J., dissenting).
