Court | Missouri Supreme Court |
Appeal from Circuit Court, Jackson County; Nelson E. Johnson, Judge.
Alberdina Lourie, alias Alberdina Frank, was convicted of an attempt to commit first degree murder, and she appeals. Reversed, and defendant discharged.
George H. Combs, Jr., and Carl L. Crocker, both of Kansas City, for appellant.
North T. Gentry, Atty. Gen., and L. Cunningham, Asst. Atty. Gen., for the State.
This is the companion case of State v. Davis, decided by the court in banc at the April term, 1928, and reported in 6 S.W.(2d) at page 609. This appellant and Davis were jointly charged in the circuit court of Jackson county with an attempt to commit murder in the first degree. A severance was granted, and, upon a separate trial, this appellant was convicted and sentenced to imprisonment in the penitentiary for five years. Davis, also, was convicted, upon a separate trial, but, upon his appeal, the judgment in his case was reversed for failure of proof, and he was discharged, in accordance with the decision above mentioned. The facts in this case being the same in all essentials as the facts in the Davis Case, the same result necessarily follows in this case.
With the exception of the written confession of Davis, which we have inserted, in substance, the evidence offered by both sides in this case is fairly and comprehensively stated by Mr. Cunningham, Assistant Attorney General, in his brief, as follows:
