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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Generally, the selection of witnesses and the introduction of evidence are questions of trial strategy and virtually unchallengeable.” State v. Kenley, 952 S.W.2d 250, 266 (Mo. banc 1997). “Defense counsel is not obligated to shop for an expert witness who might provide more favorable testimony.” Id. at 268 (citing [State u] Taylor , 929 S.W.2d [209] at 225 [ (Mo. banc 1996) ]; State v.
