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 38 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““MR. BRANDENBURG: . . . Why didn’t Mr. Deats tell it when the officer talked to him? He showed a reluctance to testify. “MR. CALKINS: Object. I will reserve it. I won’t object to that point. “THE COURT: All right. Proceed. “MR. BRANDENBURG: Why didn’t Mr. Deats tell the officer? If this is the way it happened, why didn’t he tell them right then? If you were caught in a situation like Mr. Deats was caught in, and you are innocent, what is the first thing you are going to tell the police? Aren’t you going to tell them exactly what you have been doing ? Aren’t you going to tell them about calling Mr. Farnum? Aren’t you going to tell them the whole story so they can check it out? And if it turns out to be true, are you going to languish in jail and say, ‘Forget it, I don’t want to talk to you?’ I think you will consider this also. . . . ””
