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 25 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“a warrantless search involving a bodily intrusion, even though conducted incident to a lawful arrest, violates the Fourth Amendment unless (1) the police have a “clear indication” that evidence is located within a suspect’s body and (2) the police face exigent circumstances. In addition, because the Fourth Amendment “constraints] ... against intrusions ... which are made in an improper manner,” the means and procedures employed by the authorities to conduct a search involving an intrusion into the body must also satisfy relevant Fourth Amendment standards of reasonableness.”
