Dowdell v. State ( 1917 )

Luke, J.

The conviction being dependent on circumstantial evidence, and the evidence not being sufficient to identify the corn found in the defendant’s possession as the corn alleged to have been stolen, and to exclude every other reasonable hypothesis than that of his guilt, the verdict was unauthorized, and the court erred in overruling the motion for a new trial.

Judgment reversed.

Wade, G. J., and George, J., concur.
