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 44 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“is not to say that corroborative evidence is either a necessary or sufficient condition to admissibility under the residual exceptions. It is neither. Such evidence is useful only when the statements exhibit some degree of reliability in the first instance, i.e., in the circumstances in which the declarant made the statements. See State v. Taylor, 103 N.M. 189, 199 , 704 P.2d 443, 453 (App.1985) (corroboration evidence alone will not lend particular trustworthiness to the child’s statements); State v. Slider, 38 Wash.App. 689, 694 , 688 P.2d 538, 543 (1984) (same). See also, State v. Ryan, 103 Wash.2d 165, 172 , 691 P.2d 197, 204 (1984) (“Adequate indicia of reliability must be found in reference to circumstances surrounding the making of the out-of-court statement, and not from the subsequent corroboration of the criminal act.”).”
