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 7 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“As to Count II, if you find and believe from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt: First, that defendant committed the B felony of Burglary 1st, as submitted in Instruction No. 7, and Second, that defendant committed that offense by, with through the use, assistance, and aid of a deadly weapon, then you will find the defendant guilty under Count II of armed criminal action. As used in this instruction, the term “dangerous instrument ” means any instrument, article, or substance that, under the circumstances in which it is used, is reasonably capable of causing death or other serious physical injury. However, unless you find and believe from the evidence beyond a reasonable doubt each and all of these propositions, you must find the defendant not guilty of that offense.”
