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 69 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The most serious question is whether, under the McNabb Rule (McNabb v. United States, 318 U.S. 332 , 63 S.Ct. 608 , 87 L.Ed. 819 ), admission of the confessions should be denied because obtained before prompt arraignment. This Court has expressed its understanding of the reason for the McNabb Rule as ‘to abolish unlawful detention by or at the instance of federal officers and to require observance of Rule 5(a) Federal Rules of Criminal Procedure.’ White v. United States, 5 Cir., 200 F.2d 509 , 512, 513. The McNabb Rule is inapplicable when the unlawful detention is by State officers not acting in collaboration with federal officers. Anderson v. United States, 318 U.S. 350 , 355, 856, 63 S.Ct. 599 , 87 L.Ed. 829 ; White v. United States, supra; United States v. Harris, 7 Cir., 211 F.2d 656 , 660.” 228 F.2d 286 , 289.”
