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 40 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Any interview of one suspected of a crime by a police officer will have coercive aspects to it, simply by virtue of the fact that the police officer is part of a law enforcement system which may ultimately cause the suspect to be charged with a crime. But police officers are not required to administer Miranda warnings to everyone whom they question. Nor is the requirement of warnings to be imposed simply because the questioning takes place in the station house, or because the questioned person is one whom the police suspect. Miranda warnings are required only where there has been such a restriction on a person’s freedom as to render him in custody. It was that sort of coercive environment to which Miranda by its terms was made applicable, and to which it is limited.”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Williams“Appellant next asserts error in allowing the solicitor to cross examine him and his psychiatric witnesses about appellant's two prior convictions for trespassing in public women's restrooms, and in admitting a note he had left in one of those restrooms into evidence. We hold that appellant opened the door to this cross examination by direct testimony regarding his passive character and lack of mature sexual desires.”
1 later decision quote this exact passagee.g. State v. Young“The signing of the waiver form alone is not conclusive; the State still has the burden of showing the waiver was voluntary. This requires an examination of the totality of the circumstances surrounding the waiver, including the background, experience, and conduct of the accused, (citations omitted).”
