How courts have described this case

Verbatim parenthetical descriptions written by other courts when citing this decision. Ranked by citation-network relevance.

• Clyde had motive and purchased the guns used by his cousins to commit the murder, but there was no proof he participated in the plan
• defendant had motive and purchased the guns used by his cousins to commit murder but there was no proof he knowingly provided the guns to his cousins or that he otherwise participated in planning the crimes
• evidence that defendant purchased murder weapons was insufficient to show that defendant was party to crime or conspirator, where no evidence showed that defendant supplied the weapons knowingly or with the intent to kill
• since there was “no testimony” that the defendant intended the alleged crimes, “[a]ll of the State’s evidence 11 against [defendant] was circumstantial, which requires that the proved facts shall exclude every other reasonable hypothesis save that of the guilt of the accused”
