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

  1. “is not whether a reviewing court would have reached a different conclusion on what an appropriate sentence should be; it is rather whether, on the basis of the evidence, no reasonable sentencing court could have imposed the sentence under review.”

  2. “On this record, given that there was unrebutted testimony that the school may have been closed for a year and was not being used for anything at the time of the offense, the judge’s instruction to the jury that it did not matter “that the school may have been temporarily closed down,” was in error. Considering the record as a whole, a judgment of acquittal should have been granted as it was the State’s burden to prove every element of the offense, including that the property was being “used for school purposes.” Here, a reasonable jury could not conclude beyond a reasonable doubt that the property was being use[d] for school purposes' on the date in question.”

(b) Application of subsection (a). — Subsection (a) of this section applies whether or not: (1) school was in session at the time of the crime; or (2) the real property was being used for purposes other than school purposes at the time of the crime.[ 4 ]”
