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 2 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““George Raymond Oliver ... did then and there intentionally and knowingly cause the death of an individual, Johnny Lloyd Hicks, by shooting the said Johnny Lloyd Hicks with a firearm. Count II “And it is further presented in and to said court that George Raymond Oliver on or about the 8th day of August, 1981, and anterior to the presentment of this indictment in the County of Wichita and State of Texas, did then and there intentionally and knowingly, intending to cause serious bodily injury to an individual, Johnny Lloyd Hicks, commit an act clearly dangerous to human life, to wit: shooting the said Johnny Lloyd Hicks with a firearm, thereby causing the death of the said Johnny Lloyd Hicks,”
