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 1 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“A defendant cannot be convicted on his own uncorroboration [sic] confession without independent proof that a crime has been committed. However, if the State provides through independent evidence that a crime has been committed by someone, a confession alone may be used to identify the defendant as the perpetrator of the crime. Furthermore, in cases involving physical injury to a person or property, the State must show only that the injury did, in fact, occur and that someone was criminally responsible for that injury. The State is not required to show any link between the defendant and the injury outside of the confession.”
