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 5 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“The trial court erred in denying [Bode’s] motion for judgment of acquittal at the close of all the evidence and in entering judgment of guilt of assault of a law enforcement officer and armed criminal action, because the evidence was insufficient to find that [Bode] drove off with the intent of harming the trooper, in that there was no evidence showing that [Bode] was aware that the trooper could not get away; he made no threats against the trooper; and the evidence showed that he was trying to drive away from, not toward, the trooper in continuance of flight; so that this actions were at most evidence of recklessness, so that his conviction violates the Fifth and Fourteenth Amendments to the United States Constitution and Art. I, § 10 of the Missouri Constitution.”
