Case posture Posture Appeal from Circuit Court, Covington County; W. L. Parks, Judge.
George Veal was convicted of a violation of the prohibition laws, and he appeals. Affirmed.
Certiorari denied by Supreme Court in Ex parte Veal, 213 Ala. 530 , 105 So. 705 .
Charge 4, refused to defendant, is as follows:
(4) The humane provision of the law is, that upon circumstantial evidence there should not be a conviction unless to a moral certainty it excludes every other reasonable hypothesis than that of the guilt of the accused. No matter how strong may be the circumstances, if they can be reconciled with the theory that some other person may have done the act, then the guilt of the accused is not shown by that full measure of proof the law requires.
