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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“the State did not offer this evidence as proof of the matters asserted in the statements attributed to Deremer. Ráther ... the troopers’ assertions about what Deremer said, were offered to provide the foundation or context .for understanding the statements Estes made when she responded to these assertions about what Deremer purportedly said. As [the trial court] recognized, the probative aspect of this evidence was not that Deremer had said these things (if, in fact, Deremer did say these things). Rather, the probative aspect of this evidence lay in the fact that Estes was told that Deremer had said these things, and in how she responded to these assertions.”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“because the evidence of Deremer’s purported out-of-court statements was offered for a non-hearsay purpose, the introduction of that evidence did not implicate Estes’s Sixth Amendment right of confrontation. As the United States Supreme Court explained in Crawford v. Washington, the Sixth Amendment’s confrontation clause bars evidence that is both “testimonial” and “hearsay”, but it does not bar testimonial evidence if that evidence is not hearsay: ‘The [Confrontation] Clause ... does not bar the use of testimonial statements for purposes other than establishing the truth of the matter asserted.’ Crawford, 541 U.S. at 59 n. 9, 124 S.Ct. at 1369 .”
1 later decision quote this exact passage“Crawford ... does not call into question this Court's precedents holding that statements introduced solely to place a defendant's admissions into context are not hearsay, and as such, do not run afoul of the Confrontation Clause.”
