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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“... The law is clear that a defendant's invocation of his right to remain silent may not be used against him. Miranda v. Arizona, 384 U.S. 436 , 86 S.Ct. 1602 , 16 L.Ed.2d 694 (1966); Bennett v. State, 316 So.2d 41 (Fla. 1975). In Trafficante v. State, 92 So.2d 811 (Fla. 1957), the Supreme Court prohibited any such comment, without regard to the character of the comment, or the motive or intent with which it is made. If such a comment is subject to an interpretation which would bring it within the constitutional prohibition, regardless of its susceptibility to a different construction, it constitutes reversible error.”
