Most-quoted passages

“a finding of guilt may be based on circumstantial evidence which does not remove every reasonable hypothesis except that of guilt.”
5 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“the general rule in conspiracy cases is that persons jointly indicted should be tried together and that this is particularly true where the offenses charged may be established against all of the defendants by the same evidence and which result from the same series of acts.”
3 later decisions quote this exact passage · from the majority“[a] jury conviction must be sustained if there is substantial evidence on the record to support it. In making this determination, an appellate court must view all the evidence in the light most favorable to the government, resolve all inferences which may reasonably be drawn from the evidence in the government's favor and resolve all conflicts in the testimony in the same way. If, under such a review, there is sufficient competent evidence on the record to justify a rational juror's conclusion that every element of the offense has been established beyond a reasonable doubt, the conviction must be affirmed.”
