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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“If the defendant presents evidence which covers the time period when the crime was committed and which puts [her] at a different location than that of the crime scene, [she] has presented an alibi. See Commonwealth v. Jones, 529 Pa. 149, 150-54 , 602 A.2d 820, 821-22 (1992) (acknowledging alibi charge to jury as accurately stating the law: “whether the testimony given covers the entire time the offense is shown to have been committed and whether it precludes the possibility of defendant’s presence at the scene”). The evidence presented, taken as true, must make it impossible for the defendant to have committed the crime. Id., 529 Pa. at 152-54, 602 A.2d at 822[.]”
