Jones v. Georgia

A jury found Randall Jones guilty of bringing stolen property into the State of Georgia and theft by conversion of the same property. The Court of Appeals rejected Jones’ claim that the two verdicts were mutually exclusive. Because the verdicts for theft by conversion and theft by bringing stolen property into the state were indeed mutually exclusive here, the Georgia Supreme Court concluded reversal of both verdicts was required.
