Ohio Court of Appeals March 15, 1928, No. 832 (Freeman v. State)

BY THE COURT.

Now if this testimony is true it would be the basis of a verdict for acquittal. We think the court rightfully held that there was evidence tending to prove- the commission of the offense of murder in the first degree, and that if the defendant was not guilty of murder in the first degree because of his defense of self-defense, he was entitled to an acquittal.
