MADDOX, Justice
(dissenting).
I would issue the writ to review the record to determine whether the evidence was indeed insufficient to support a verdict of guilty.
After that review, I might agree with the Court of Criminal Appeals; but I would review the evidence before I would agree to set aside the conviction and render a judgment for the defendant.
