1984In Massengale v. State, 653 S.W.2d 20, 22 (Tex.Cr.App. 1983), this court wrote: “The Court of Appeals ... recognized that although under Article 38.29, supra, 'unadju-dicated criminal offenses are inadmissible for impeachment purposes,' evidence of pending charges is nevertheless admissible ‘under certain circumstances for the limited purpose of showing bias, prejudice, interest, and motive of the witness in testifying as he did.' That certainly is an accurate statement of the rule in this case.
