114 S.E. 816; 1922 Ga. App. LEXIS 184

Luke

Opinion of the Court

Luke, J.

Although the evidence raises a strong suspicion of guilt, it is not sufficient to exclude every other reasonable hypothesis than that of the guilt of the defendant. It was, therefore, error to overrule the motion for a new trial.

Judgment reversed.

Broyles, O. J., and Bloodworth, J., concur. Len B. Ouillebeau, A. W. Powell, for plaintiff in error. John A. Boylcin, solicitor-general, B. A. Stephens, contra.
