Nevertheless, without any special circumstance, the court below found the defendant not guilty of this part of the facts charged without rejecting the credibility of the testimony, which affected the conclusion of the judgment.

The punishment sentenced by the court below on unreasonable sentencing (one year of imprisonment and two years of suspended execution) is too uneasible and unfair.
