The sentences later courts lift from this opinion, ranked by how many decisions quote each — the parts of the opinion doing the work.

“... [CJredibility, when in issue, must always be ascertained from circumstantial evidence, including the demeanor of the witness, the plausibility of the testimony, and the relative strengths of the evidence supporting and opposing testimony. From consideration of this evidence, the trier of fact can form an opinion of the 'probability' that a particular witness is relating an accurate account of the incident.”
