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 58 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “[The victim] and her family have experienced trauma, and that trauma ... continues to this date. It's been a full decade, during which [they] have had to live day-to-day with this situation. The delay, of course, is not your fault. You exercised the rights which are available to you, no one in any way wishes to deny you those.”

  2. “[t]he passage of over eighteen months from citation to trial, not brought about by the defendant, is so long as to constitute prejudice as a matter of law and a violation of the defendant's constitutional rights.”

  3. “the victim does continue to suffer the effects of the defendant's crimes to this day.... This ongoing anguish is separate from any distress resulting from the defendant's exercise of his appellate rights.”
