Porter v. State
74 S.E. 1099, 11 Ga. App. 246, 1912 Ga. App. LEXIS 352
Opinion
There being no proof of a plenary confession by the accused,
but, at most, evidence only of incriminatory admissions, it was such an error to charge the law relating to confessions as to require the grant of a new trial. These incriminatory admissions are not conclusive; and proof of inculpatory admissions will not authorize a charge upon the subject of confession. Owen v. State, 120 Ga. 296 (48 S. E. 21); Riley v. State, 1 Ga. App. 651 (57 S. E. 1031), and decisions cited.
Judgment reversed.
