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 8 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Viewed favorably to the verdict, the evidence in this case established five acts of deviate sexual intercourse personally accomplished by the defendant. It established nine acts accomplished by Mudd, aided by the defendant. The defendant sought acquittal by his testimony that the victim consented. The failure to specify the time of each offense did not hinder the defendant from presenting this defense.”
