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.
“[Ejvidence that the bleach was used in a manner likely to cause great bodily harm existed in the form of the victim’s testimony that the bleach was ‘sloshed’ into her face three or four times and that it got into her eyes, mouth, and throat, making her unable to open her eyes and constricting her throat, making breathing difficult. Additionally, she testified that she later had to go to the emergency room. The testimony required for the jury to make a determination is testimony that bleach was used, not the effect of its use. The jury, as fact finder, could then determine whether such use was likely to cause great bodily harm.”
