Turner v. State

Smith, C. J.

(dissenting).

I am of the opinion that the evidence was admissible, and that the judgment should be affirmed. My views relative thereto will be found set forth in a dissenting opinion in Owens v. State, 98 So. 235, this day decided. A confessedly guilty defendant here escapes punishment because of the erroneous rule announced in Tucker v. State, 128 Miss. 211, 90. So. 845, 24 A. L. R. 1377, which case I think should be overruled.
