Kenneth Edward Morgan v. State Florida by First District. District Court of Appeal of Florida Book Summary

BOYER, Judge. Appellant (hereinafter defendant) seeks reversal of a final judgment adjudicating him guilty of attempted burglary. An examination of the record reveals that defendant accompanied co-defendant Harold Luke to a warehouse which Luke admittedly broke into. Defendant was apprehended running from the scene with two pliers and a screwdriver in his pocket. There was no evidence that defendant entered the building, attempted to enter the building, or encouraged, aided or abetted Luke in doing so. The law is well settled that a person may be convicted on circumstantial evidence if such evidence is consistent with his guilt and also inconsistent with any reasonable hypothesis of innocence. Mere suspicion, probabilities or suppositions are insufficient. Driggers v. State, 164 So.2d 200 (Fla.1964); Lyons v. State, 47 So.2d 541 (Fla.1950). The circumstantial evidence in this case does not meet that standard.
