Pennington v. State
39 Ga. App. 526; 147 S.E. 727; 1929 Ga. App. LEXIS 398
Pennington v. State
Opinion of the Court
The accused were convicted of manufacturing whisky. The only evidence directly connecting them with that offense was the testimony of an accomplice, and his testimony was not corroborated by any other evidence whatsoever that directly, and independently of his testimony, connected them with the crime of making whisky. It follows that the verdict was unauthorized and that the refusal to grant a new trial was error.
Judgment reversed.
