of hearsay evidence except as provided by statute or other rules prescribed pursuant to statutory authority. See Tex.R. Evid. 802. “Hearsay” is a statement, other than one made by the declarant while testifying at trial, offered in evidence to prove the truth of the matter asserted. Tex.R. Evid. 801(d). Thus, a statement not offered to prove the truth of the matter asserted is not hearsay. Dinkins v. State, 894 S.W.2d 330, 347-48 (Tex. Crim.App.), cert. denied, 516 U.S. 832, 116 S.Ct. 106, 133 L.Ed.2d 59 (1995). In that regard, the Texas Court of Criminal Appeals has held that statements offered for the purpose of explaining how a defendant became a suspect and not for the truth of the matter asserted are not hearsay. See Jones v. State, 843 S.W.2d 487, 499 (Tex. Crim.App.1992) (<HOLDING>), cert. denied, 507 U.S. 1035, 113 S.Ct. 1858,
