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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“One of the contentions of the State is that the defendant, Murray, is guilty of a charge of attempted robbery with a firearm as a co-conspirator even though he did not personally participate in any of the acts constituting the alleged attempted robbery. If the defendant was a party to the conspiracy as a party to the conspiracy, he would be equally guilty as a principal with the other participants in the commission of the crimes contemplated by the conspiracy. It makes no difference that the defendant was not personally present when those crimes were committed. For once a conspiracy is shown each conspirator is responsible for all acts committed by the other in execution of the common purpose which are a natural or probable consequence of the unlawful combination or undertaking. Even though such acts are not intended or contemplated as a part of the original design.”
