Davis v. State
Georgia Court of Appeals · Decided September 24, 1941 · Broyles, Gardner, MacIntyre
16 S.E.2d 598; 65 Ga. App. 840; 1941 Ga. App. LEXIS 434 (South Eastern Reporter, Second Series)

Davis v. State

Opinion of the Court

Gardner, J.

The evidence for the State was wholly circumstantial, and did not exclude every reasonable hypothesis save that of the guilt of the accused. It was just as reasonable to be believed that the whisky belonged to the witness Vaughn who claimed it, and who testified for ■the defendant.

Judgment reversed.

Broyles, O. J., and MacIntyre, J., concur.
