Criminal law — receiving stolen property — property received not stolen — correct verdict where animus furandi present is theft.
The accused had been found in possession of $500 and certain items of clothing. The money had been given to the accused by the four-year-old son of the complainant. The accused must have known that the four-year-old would not have had the authority to hand over the money but in view of the age of the child the money could not have been stolen. A conviction of receiving stolen property set aside and a verdict of guilty of theft substituted.
