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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“You must not find Scott Cleveland guilty unless you find that the state proved beyond a reasonable doubt that [the victim] was incapable of resisting or of understanding the nature of the | )sact by reason of a stupor or abnormal condition of mind produced by an intoxicating agent. To prove simple rape, under the law, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that [the victim] was in a stupor or abnormal condition of mind that cause [sic] to be incapable of resisting or understanding the nature of the act. To prove that [the victim] was in a stupor, the state must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that [the victim] was in the condition of being almost unconscious or in a state of insensibility during the act. You therefore must acquit Mr. Cleveland if the state has not proved beyond a reasonable doubt that [the victim] was in the condition of being almost unconscious or in a state of insensibility during the act.”
