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 27 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[m]ere knowledge that an offense is being committed is not the same as participation with criminal intent, and mere presence at the scene, including driving the perpetrator to and from the scene or a display of questionable behavior after the fact, is not sufficient to establish participation.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“Where two or more inferences in regard to the existence of criminal intent and criminal acts must be drawn from the evidence and then pyramided to prove the offense charged, the evidence lacks the conclusive nature to support the conviction.”
4 later decisions quote this exact passage“As there was nothing truly to connect appellant with the crime or to exclude his reasonable hypothesis of innocence, we hold that appellant's alleged behavior on the night Scott attempted to burglarize the [store] provides insufficient evidence to sustain appellant's convictions and those convictions are, therefore, reversed.”
