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.

  1. “[T]he silence of an accused while under arrest is not admissible against him. State v. Howell, 838 S.W.2d 158, 161 [2-5] (Mo.App.1992). The state may not use post-arrest silence either as affirmative proof of a defendant’s guilt or to impeach his testimony. Id. It may not be shown that an accused failed to volunteer an exculpatory statement, nor may it be shown that, by his silence, he failed to deny or explain, while under arrest, an incriminating fact about which no question was asked. Id. The admission of such post-arrest silence constitutes an invasion of an accused’s constitutional rights. Id.”
