Description

ALEXANDER Ingles, also known as Alex. English and hereinafter called the defendant, was charged with having murdered his wifes sister. He pleaded not guilty by reason of insanity at the time of the killing, was convicted of murder in the first degree and was sentenced to death. To obtain a reversal of the judgment, the defendants counsel relies upon several assignments of error, which we will proceed to discuss. In view of the fact that there must be a new trial, we will omit a detailed statement of the evidence.
