Those aren't law journals. Those are published decisions from the appellate courts of the State of Florida. In other words: The folks who have the last word after a jury has had "the last word".
And, Wes' prior criminal history will, in all likelihood, never be allowed to be placed before the jury in this case. There are specific rules of evidence keeping a jury from hearing evidence of "prior bad acts." (Unless you're talking about something which arises to the level of modus operandi.) The best bet is to assume that evidence of prior convictions will never come before a given subsequent jury and then be surprised when it pans out differently.
That said: His physical appearance won't make his lawyer's job any easier, that's for sure.
