Butler v. State

LATTIMORE, Judge.

Conviction for transporting intoxicating liquor; punishment, one year in the penitentiary.

The testimony is ample to show that appellant and one Vaughn were riding in Vaughn’s car; that officers were watching for them; that when accosted by the officers the car speeded up, and appellant got out on the running-board and broke four jars of whisky, one after another, upon the fender. This evidence would be sufficient to justify the jury’s verdict that appellant was guilty with Vaughn in the transportation of the whisky.

Complaint is made in a bill of exception of a question…
