[MAJORITY — BRICKEN, P. J.]
BRICKEN, P. J.
The entire record has been read and considered by this court sitting en banc, and the unanimous conclusion is reached that evidence adduced upon this trial was wholly insufficient to support the verdict of the jury and to sustain the judgment of conviction. The accused was entitled to the general affirmative charge requested in writing, and for the failure- to give this charge the judgment is reversed and the cause remanded. Reversed and remanded.
