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 98 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[W]e review the district court's denial of a motion for severance for an abuse of discretion which resulted in 'severe or compelling prejudice.' " United States v. Fregoso, 60 F.3d 1314 , 1328 (8th Cir.1995) (quoting United States v. Rimell, 21 F.3d 281 , 289 (8th Cir.), cert. denied, 513 U.S. 976, 115 S.Ct. 453, 130 L.Ed.2d 362 (1994)). "To show such prejudice, a defendant must establish something more than the mere fact that his chance for acquittal would have been better had he been tried separately. He must affirmatively demonstrate that the joint trial prejudiced his right to a fair trial.”
