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 4 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.

  1. “In cases such as this one, the officers involved were investigating crimes of [the situs] jurisdiction in [the situs] jurisdiction. Those officers had taken an oath to uphold the laws of [the situs] jurisdiction. If they fail to follow the laws of [the situs] jurisdiction, they run the risk that evidence obtained will be excluded in the cases they investigate. If that is not enough to deter them from misconduct, it does not seem likely that the slight increment in deterrence achieved by suppressing the evidence in [the forum] jurisdiction will have any effect.”
