HAMILTON WILLIAM BYNOG
On Supervisory Writ to the 10th Judicial District Court, Parish of Natchitoches
PER CURIAM
Writ granted in part. Based on all the evidence adduced at trial, particularly
the video of the incident, even when viewed in the light most favorable to the
prosecution, we find the evidence insufficient to sustain the convictions of applicant
on two coun ts of resisting an officer. Jackson v. Virginia , 443 U.S. 307 (1979).
These convictions are therefore reversed and vacated. In all other respects, the writ
is denied.
