No purpose would be served in relating the sordid details referred to in the record. It is sufficient to say that we have examined the testimony and found it ample to sustain the conviction in each case. State v. Burke,
Defendant Allie Turner includes in her motion the additional ground of newly discovered evidence. This evidence consists of photographs of the house which she frequented and in which defendant Poullaine was apprehended. The newly discovered evidence is of such doubtful character as to make improbable a different result on a new trial. Public policy demands that new trials should not be too frequently granted on the ground of newly discovered evidence. Courts are cautious in granting them on this ground, and if the new evidence is doubtful in character and not so material as to make probable a different result on a new trial, relief on this ground will be denied. Vietor v. Costello,
The orders and judgments appealed from are affirmed.
