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 6 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[The defendant’s] engagement in conduct that created a very high risk of death or serious bodily injury to others was a proximate cause of [the bystander’s] death. This is true whether it was the defendant or another participant in the shoot-out who fired the shot that killed the innocent bystander.”
