In the beginning Daniel already dabbles in forensic linguistics by pointing out that the use of 3rd person to refer to oneself can be used as a means to distance oneself from the utterance.
Now listen what Coulthard and Johnson have to say about the evidential value of single identical strings:
The occurrence of long identical sequences in two texts supposedly independently created is less likely to be a result of two speaker/writers coincidentally selecting the same chunks by chance and more likely to be a product of borrowing (196)
