TOM GRAY, Chief Justice,
concurring.
Because, with regard to issue two, the majority now holds the Massachusetts pen packet is sufficient evidence of a prior felony conviction to support the enhancement, I withdraw my Dissenting Opinion issued March 9, 2005 and concur in the judgment of the Court now affirming the trial court’s judgment in all respects. I must again note, however, that the only issue necessary for our disposition of issue two was whether the Massachusetts pen packet was admissible. Petruccelli’s issue is that the “trial court erred in allowing evidence of Appellant’s prior conviction.” The brief goes on to discuss the standard of review regarding the admission of evidence, not the sufficiency thereof.
With these comments, I concur in the judgment but not in the opinion.
