Question

John Scopes was found in a court of law for teaching evolution in a Tennessee public school.

Answer 1

He was found Guilty in the State of Tennessee v. John Thomas Scopes trial.

Answer 2

Guilty.

Step-by-step explanation:

He was tried in a case known as the Scopes trial and was found guilty and fined $100.

The Scopes trial was held in 1925 and accused the substitute teacher John T. Scopes of violating Tennessee´s Butler Act.

After the conviction, Scopes´s lawyers appeal to the Supreme Court of Tennessee and they overturned the verdict by a legal technicality, the jury should have decided the fine, not the judge.
