Holding

At the time of the decision of the Oklahoma Court of Criminal Appeals, clearly established federal law provided that the erroneous admission of unduly prejudicial evidence could render a criminal trial fundamentally unfair in violation of due process, see Payne v. Tennessee, 501 U. S. 808, 825 (1991); the judgment below is vacated and the case is remanded for further proceedings.
