Description
Parker Mitchner Reavis, Johnnie William Smith, and Marvin Arthur Carroll were indicted in two counts. The first charged that they formed a conspiracy to have in their possession and under their control counterfeit coins of the denomination of 50 cents, and to attempt to pass, utter and sell such coins as true and genuine; and the second charge that they had in their possession eighteen falsely made, forged nd counterfeited coins in resemblance and similitude of genuine coins of 50 cent denominations. All defendants were found guilty. Reavis was sentenced on the second count to ten years in the penitentiary and to pay a fine of $500, and he was placed on probation on the first count for the period of five years to begin at the expiration of the sentence on the second count or upon his release from custody under such sentence. Carroll was sentenced on the first count to a term of two years in the penitentiary, and he was placed on probation on the second count for a term of five years to begin at the conclusion of the sentence on the first count or upon his release from custody on such count. The record does not show what disposition was made of Smith Reavis and Carroll appealed.
