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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““This court, under the power to modify judgments, section 3204, Okla. St. 1931 [22 O. S. 1941 § 1066], may reduce the judgment to the included offense of rape in the second degree and fix appropriate punishment. Lebo v. State, 40 Okla. Cr. 116 , 267 P. 288 ; Plaster v. State, 45 Okla. Cr. 452 , 283 P. 805 ; Brasel v. State [ 48 Okla. Cr. 403 ] 291 P. 807 . “The judgment is therefore modified from rape in the first degree to rape in the second degree, the punishment fixed at four years in the penitentiary, and, as modified, the case is affirmed.””
