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 13 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Statements by sex offense victims made to third parties shortly after the offense are admissible under any one of three theories. First, third parties may testify as to the victim’s “complaint of rape” which proves that the victim did not remain silent (details of the offense are not admissible). Next, testimony by third parties may involve an “excited utterance” by the victim. Finally, third parties may testify as to a “prior consistent statement” made by the victim so long as the victim is present at trial and subject to cross-examination, the victim’s credibility has been impeached, and introduction of the testimony otherwise complies with the applicable rules of evidence.”
