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 35 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“Unless time is of the essence of an offense, an allegation of time in general terms does not render an indictment invalid. State v. Murray, 609 S.W.2d 192 (Mo.App.1980). Time is not of the essence of rape or of statutory rape, State v. Bowers, 29 S.W.2d 58 (Mo.1930); State v. White, supra [ 674 S.W.2d 551 (Mo.App.1984)]; State v. Kammerich, 550 S.W.2d 931 (Mo.App.1977). Time is not of the essence of deviate sexual intercourse. State v. Allen, 622 S.W.2d 275 (Mo.App.1981).”

Wise“To trigger the application of the corroboration rule, the victim’s testimony must be “so contradictory or in conflict with physical facts, surrounding circumstances, and common experience as to be unconvincing.” [Citation omitted.] The corroboration rule does not apply, however, where the inconsistency or even contradiction bears on a proof not essential to the case.”
