The jury heard evidence that on July 25, 2004, authorities discovered the body of James “Jimmy” Joste in an upstairs hallway at Glover’s home in southwest Austin.  Evidence at the crime scene established that Joste had been shot to death.  William Gibbons, a bloodstain pattern analyst with the Austin Police Department, analyzed the bloodstains found around Joste’s body and testified  about  his  findings.    According  to  Gibbons,  Joste  was  first  shot  in  the  bedroom,  near the  entry  door.    The  bloodstains  indicated  that  Joste  then  moved  from  the  bedroom  into  the hallway as the shooting continued: Basically, the victim . . . was in an upright position or near an upright position in or around the doorway. . . .  He started to work his way through the hallway, we see thatfrom the increased [blood] concentration.  At some point . . . there was a bullet that went through him and into the wall while he was traveling down the hallway. . . .Basically, he was shot in the hallway, that is what caused the high velocity impactstains.  He starts to slow down, which is indicative of a gunshot injury, he actuallystops here, staggers a little forward, stops here for a few seconds, and then he goesto the ground
