In the testimony of the witness Vaughn, whose credibility was for the jury, and the testimony of officers executing a warrant to search the house of Caren Barr, there is evidence from which the jury could have found beyond and to the exclusion of a reasonable doubt that the appellant O'Quinn was in actual or constructive possession of the controlled substances which were the subject of the information.
