Jackson v. State

38 Ohio St. (N.S.) 585
Ohio Supreme Court·Decided January 15, 1883·Published

Opinion

Longworth, J.

The same reasons which render evidence of acts committed shortly prior to the time of the offense [586] charged competent for the purpose of showing a conspiracy, apply with equal force to acts committed shortly thereafter. The test is that the acts should appear to be so connected as to authorize the inference that they were all part and parcel of a single conspiracy to commit several crimes.

Motion overruled.
