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 3 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“If two or more persons help each other commit a crime and the Defendant is one of them, the Defendant is a principal and must be treated as if he had done all of the things the other person or persons did if the Defendant: Number one, knew what was going to happen. And, number two, intended to participate actively or by sharing in an expected benefit. And, number three, actually did something by which he intended to help commit the crime. Help means to aid, plan or assist. To be a principal, the Defendant does not have to be present when the crime is committed.”
