- When the defendant was indicted for obtaining or attempting to obtain "dangerous drugs" by fraud, forgery, or concealment of a material fact, but the drugs were actually "Halcion" and "Lortab," both controlled substances, conviction of the defendant for violations involving controlled substances was not supported by the evidence because it was for a different offense than originally charged and the trial court erred in failing to direct a verdict of acquittal. Tibbs v. State, 211 Ga. App. 250, 438 S.E.2d 706 (1993).
