WOMACK, J.,
filed a concurring opinion in which PRICE, J., joined.
I join the judgment of the Court and, except as to Points of Error Four through Seven, its opinion.
I continue to believe that we can and should review the evidence at the capital-sentencing proceeding for both “legal” and “factual” sufficiency, as the appellant requests in Points Four through Six.
As for Point Seven, I do not think we should reach the merits of the district court’s ruling on a writ of habeas corpus in this appeal. Habeas corpus being a proceeding separate from the criminal prosecution, an appeal from the ruling should have been taken to the court of appeals.
