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

  1. “The trial court did not commit reversible error by admitting sexually explicit letters Simpson wrote to the victim’s sister. “When a defendant is charged with sexual offenses, pornographic videotapes and pictures found lawfully in his possession are relevant and admissible ... to show defendant’s lustful disposition.” Altman, 229 Ga. App. [769,] 771 (4) [( 495 SE2d 106 ) (1997)]. It follows that a pornographic letter the defendant composed would be admissible for the same purpose. Miller v. State, 219 Ga. App. 213, 217 (3) ( 464 SE2d 621 ) (1995) (video of child molester committing autoerotic acts admissible).”
