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

There is absolutely no evidence that the woman in this case would have remained with her captor and consented ... had she been able to leave safely."”
