Lead Opinion

Hill, C. J.

In a criminal ease where the evidence relied upon by the State was entirely circumstantial and without probative value, because consistent with innocence and not exclusive of every reasonable hypothesis except that of guilt, a conviction was unauthorized, and a new trial should have been granted. Judgment reversed.





Dissenting Opinion

Powell, J.,

dissenting. I think the evidence is amply conclusive to justify the conviction.
