¶1Conviction is for murder, punishment being assessed at death. This is a companion case to Howard v. State (No. 6620) 242 S. W. 739 (opinion May 31, 1922), and Willman v. State (No. 6619) 242 S. W. 746 (opinion June 7, 1922). The facts in the instant case are identical with those fully set ■out in the opinions in the cases mentioned.
¶2The question raised in them as to the sufficiency of the evidence to corroborate the accomplice witness does not here occur, on account of a statement introduced against appellant as made to the witness Tyler. However, the legal questions relative to certain statements made by the accomplice to the officers, and testified to in detail by both him and them, and also relative to the charge on accomplice, are the same in this case as caused a reversal of both the Howard and Willman Gases. Those matters were discussed at length in the opinions in those cases, and a further review here would avail nothing.
¶3For the same reasons therein given, it becomes necessary to reverse the judgment and remand this cause for new trial; and the same •■is so ordered.
