Seckinger v. State
Seckinger v. State
11 Ga. App. 797; 76 S.E. 167; 1912 Ga. App. LEXIS 186
Seckinger v. State
Opinion of the Court
The evidence in support of the verdict was entirely circumstantial, and, weighed most strongly against the accused, raised only a bare suspicion of his guilt, and was consistent with his innocence. The verdict was therefore unauthorized by law. Winkles v. State, 4 Ga. App. 559 (61 S. E. 1128) ; Thompson v. State, 5 Ga. App. 7 (62 S. E. 571); Moore v. State, 8 Ga. App. 113 (68 S. E. 616).
Judgment reversed.
