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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““The State did develop testimony, from the prosecutrix, that the Eastman yard was right next door to where the man lived. The burden is on the State in any criminal prosecution to prove beyond a reasonable doubt that the accused committed the criminal act charged. De La Paz v. State, 161 Tex.Cr.R. 514 , 279 S.W.2d 101 . As stated by this Court in Mayo v. State, 156 Tex.Cr.R. 26 , 238 S.W.2d 777 : ‘The state was under the burden of showing that this appellant was the man who committed the offense charged. Unless and until the state satisfies that burden, the guilt of this appellant has not beén shown. Gandy v. State, 139 Tex.Cr.R. 140 , 139 S.W.2d 275 , also supports the holding that the accused must be identified as the person who committed the offense.””
