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 22 citing decisions cite the case generally; a passage count includes only decisions quoting that exact language verbatim.
“[Pjhotographs are admissible into evidence “when they accurately portray anything which it is competent for a witness to describe in his own words, or where they are helpful as an aid to a verbal description of objects or conditions and relevant to some material issue.” Photographs are not inadmissible simply due to the fact that the details of the crime are vividly brought to the jury’s attention or because they “incidentally tend to arouse passion or prejudice.” Like any other demonstrative evidence, the admission of photographs lies within the sound discretion of the trial court.”
