Dodson v. State
Dodson v. State
Opinion of the Court
We are of the opinion that the indictment is sufficient. We find no material error in the charge of the court. But we are clearly of the opinion that the evidence does not support the conviction.
Although the witness Rosa, with whom the incestuous intercourse is alleged to have been committed, states that she did not consent to the intercourse, it is very clear from her testimony that she made no serious, determined or positive resistance to it.
The judgment is reversed and the cause is remanded.
Reversed and remanded.
