Jacobs v. State

Opinion of the Court

SAMFORD, J.

The only evidence tending to connect the defendant with the commission of the crime charged is the testimony of accomplices'. The conviction was for a felony. Under section 7897 of the Code of 1907 the defendant was entitled to the affirmative charge. For this error the judgment must be reversed, and the cause remanded.

Reversed and remanded.
