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 11 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The massages were either requested or demanded by Piercefíeld, and in the case of D.S. were employed as a tool for the child to garner a reward or be allowed to do something. In either instance, Piercefíeld was familiarizing the children with touching his body. These contacts were relevant evidence of preparation or plan. We find this evidence showed Piercefíeld’s grooming of the children to familiarize them with touching and create more physical relationship with them. The evidence was probative and admissible to show Piercefíeld’s preparation and plan and any prejudice did not outweigh this probative value.”
