Alabama Court of Appeals June 9, 1925, 8 Div. 266. (Mills v. State)

lead-opinion

The solicitor, in his closing argument to the jury, made use of the remark: "It may be that is why there is so many murders in Lawrence county." Upon objection being made, the court first overruled the objection, and then, at the suggestion of the solicitor, the remark was withdrawn, and the jury instructed not to consider it. This remark was not beyond the bounds of proper argument.
