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 9 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““In Missouri, a judicial or extra-judicial identification by a person testifying at trial is admissible. State v. Buschman, 325 Mo. 553 , 29 S.W.2d 688 ; State v. Pitchford, Mo.Sup., 324 S.W.2d 684 ; State v. Rima, Mo.Sup., 395 S.W.2d 102 . The weight of such testimony is for the jury. State v. Andrews, Mo.Sup., 309 S.W.2d 626 ; State v. Blackmore, 327 Mo. 708 , 38 S.W.2d 32 . We are not alone in taking this position. In Stovall ( 388 U.S. 293, 299-300 , 87 S.Ct. 1967 , 18 L.Ed.2d 1199, 1971 ), the Court noted that the ‘overwhelming majority of American courts have always treated * * * [this] evidence question not as one of admissibility but as one of credibility for the jury.’ See Annotation, 71 A.L.R.2d 449 .””
