Parties | STATE v. BENNETT et al. |
Court | Missouri Supreme Court |
Appeal from Circuit Court, Johnson County; Ewing Cockrell, Judge.
Charles Bennett and another were convicted of transporting corn whisky, and defendant named appeals. Reversed and remanded.
Aber & Jones, of Warrensburg, for appellant.
Stratton Shartel, Atty. Gen., and A. M. Meyer, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State.
Appellant and one Junius Ritchie were jointly charged with the felony of transporting corn whisky, in violation of section 21, Laws of 1923, p. 242. Both were found guilty. The jury assessed appellant's punishment at imprisonment in the penitentiary for three years. After unsuccessfully moving for a new trial, he was sentenced on the verdict and thereafter granted an appeal. Defendant Ritchie, apparently satisfied to get off with the jail sentence imposed upon him, did not appeal.
