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.

““The question of whether or not there has been a valid waiver of Miranda rights is controlled by determining, from the totality of the circumstances, whether the defendant, after being advised of such rights, voluntarily chooses to forego them. Richardson v. State (1978), Ind., 373 N.E.2d 874, 875 ; Nacoff v. State (1971), 256 Ind. 97 , 267 N.E.2d 165 . We review this question on appeal as we do other sufficiency matters. We do not weigh the evidence, but rather determine whether there is substantial evidence of probative value to support the trial court’s finding. Murphy v. State (1977), Ind., 369 N.E.2d 411 .””
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. Manns v. State“"The use of hypothetical questions is the means of obtaining an expert's opinion when the expert has no personal knowledge of the facts and he is requested to offer an opinion based on facts previously adduced at trial. The opinion of this psychiatric expert was, however, based on his personal examination of the defendant along with available medically related reports and records. Cf. Smith [v. State (1972), 259 Ind. 187 , 285 N.E.2d 275 .] A hypothetical question was thus not a necessary means of eliciting such an opinion. Id. at 184, 390 N.E.2d at 1004 .”
