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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Here the police officer merely told one of the identifying witnesses that based on the description she had previously given the police, he had a suspect in the group of photographs he handed her to view. He did not indicate in any manner which individual he suspected. We find that the police officer was merely stating the obvious. The very purpose of a photographic display is to assist in the apprehension of offenders. Simmons [v. United States, 890 U.S. 377 , 88 S.Ct. 967 , 19 L.Ed.2d 1247 (1968) ]. It would be a useless law enforcement procedure if a police officer showed a victim or a witness a spread of photographs where, based on a description. previously furnished him, he suspected none of the individuals depicted.””
