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.
““As to appellant’s argument, it appears in the first place, that there really was no objection to the lock of hair being taken, but were it otherwise, the contention would still be without merit. It has been held that only testimonial evidence is protected as being within the scope of the privilege against self-incrimination guaranteed by the Fifth Amendment to the Federal Constitution; Schmerber v. California, 384 U.S. 757 ; McGinnis v. State, 251 Ark. October 18, 1971.””
