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 37 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“"Entrapment occurs when State officers or persons under their control, incite, induce, lure, or instigate a person into committing a criminal offense, which that person would not have otherwise committed, and had no intention of committing."”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“The oral charge need not state the legal principle exactly as it appears in the requested charge. The principle expressed in the requested charge need only be fairly and substantially covered in the trial court's oral charge.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage“"The defendant must first come forward with evidence sufficient to raise a jury issue `hat the Government's conduct created a substantial risk that the offense would be committed by a person other than one ready to commit it'. United States v. Mosley , 496 F.2d 1012 , 1014 (5th Cir. 1974) citing Pierce v. United States , 414 F.2d 163 , 168 (5th Cir. 1969). Once such issue is raised, the Government must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the Defendant was predisposed to commit the charged offense. Id. See also, United States v. Gomez-Rojas , 507 F.2d 1213 , 1218 (5th Cir. 1975). By relying on entrapment as a defense, an accused exposes himself to a `searching inquiry into his own conduct and predisposition . . .' Sorrells v. United States , 287 U.S. 435 , 451 , 53 S.Ct. 210 , 216 , 77 L.Ed. 413 (1932). To negative the defense, the government may introduce evidence to prove predisposition which is otherwise inadmissible. United States v. Moriarty , 497 F.2d 486 , 488 (5th Cir. 1974); United States v. Simon , 488 F.2d 133 (5th Cir. 1973)."”
