Most-quoted passages
The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work. These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Now members of the jury, I instruct you that evidence of other acts by the defendant on or about November 8th, 2007 which the State contends are similar in nature to the offenses charged here are not admissible to prove the character of the defendant in order to show that he acted in conformity therewith on November 28th, 2007, or that he was disposed to commit an offense of the nature of the crimes charged here. And you may not consider it for that purpose. It has been received and may be considered by you only for the purpose of showing, to the extent, if any, you find it does show: One, the identity of the defendant in connection with the crimes for which he is being tried; Two, that the defendant had the knowledge, which is a necessary element of the crimes charged in this case ; Three, the absence of mistake; And four, evidence of the existence of a plan, system or method of operation involving the crimes charged in this case.”
