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 10 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
““Under the common law evidence corroborating that of the prosecutrix was not essential to a conviction. In some states it is expressly provided by statute that the defendant can not be convicted unless the prosecutrix is corroborated by other evidence tending to connect the defendant with the commission of the offense. No such statute has been enacted in this state, and it has already been held that, in the absence of a statute, there may be a conviction on the uncorroborated evidence of the prosecutrix if it is believed by the jury. (The State v. Tinkler, 72 Kan. 262 .)” (p. 421.)”
