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.
“Evidence has been received as corroboration tending to show that at an earlier time the witness, Florence Wright Hicks, made a statement to J. F. Walker consistent with her testimony at this trial; That the witness, Florence Wright Hicks, made a statement to Deputy Sheriff Wesley Denton consistent with her testimony at this trial; and That the witness, Harry Pearce made a statement to J. F. Walker consistent with his testimony at this trial. You must not consider such earlier statements as evidence of the truth of what was said at the earlier time because it or they were not made under oath at this trial. If you believe that such earlier statements were made and that they are consistent with the testimony of the witness at this trial, then you may consider this together with all other facts and circumstances bearing upon the witness’s truthfulness in deciding whether you will believe or disbelieve his, her or their testimony at this trial.”
