These counts are smaller than the citation total above because most of the 66 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[A] juvenile's statement or confession cannot be used against him at a subsequent trial or hearing unless both he and his parents or guardian were informed of his rights to an attorney, and to remain silent. Furthermore, the child must be given an opportunity to consult with his parents, guardian or an attorney representing the juvenile as to whether or not he wishes to waive those rights. After such consultation the child may waive his rights if he so chooses provided of course that there are no elements of coercion, force or inducement present.”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. Smith v. State““[W]e do not consider this issue waived because the Appellant presented to the Court prior to trial a motion in limine which, in part, asked that the Appellant’s pre-trial statements be excluded. This part of the Appellant’s motion was overruled. Objection at trial would have been desirable, but the issue was so thoroughly argued and the Court’s ruling was so specific that further objection may be considered fruitless.” Id. at 278, 279.”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. Lagenour v. State““ ‘If the jury returns a verdict of not guilty by reason of insanity you are instructed that the law provides that the court shall initiate and conduct a mental competency hearing to determine whether the defendant shall be transferred to the care and custody of the Department of Mental Health for civil commitment proceedings.’ ””
