In Neugent v. State, 294 Ga. App. 284 (668 SE2d 888) (2008), the defendant was convicted for possession of cocaine that had been found on the ground outside his residence. Finding the evidence sufficient to support the conviction, we noted that in addition to the circumstantial evidence (i.e., the defendant's spatial proximity to the cocaine at the time it was found), there was direct evidence that the defendant was holding the cocaine shortly before it was found on the ground. There was further evidence that it was highly improbable that another person on the scene could have thrown the cocaine into the place where it was found; that the defendant had made inculpatory statements concerning his activities as a drug dealer; and that drug paraphernalia was found in the defendant's residence. Id. at 287.
