				If you ever testify in court, you might wish you could have been as sharp as this policeman. 
 
 
 
He was being cross-examined by a defense attorney during a felony trial.  The lawyer was trying to undermine the policeman's credibility... 
 
 
Q: "Officer -- did you see my client fleeing the scene?" 
 
 
A: "No sir.  But I subsequently observed a person matching the description of the offender, running several blocks away." 
 
 
Q: "Officer -- who provided this description?" 
 
 
A: "The officer who responded to the scene." 
 
 
Q: "A fellow officer provided the description of this so-called offender.  Do you trust your fellow officers?" 
 
 
A: "Yes, sir.  With my life." 
 
 
Q: "With your life?  Let me ask you this then officer.  Do you have a room where you change your clothes in preparation for your daily duties?" 
 
 
A: "Yes sir, we do!" 
 
 
Q: "And do you have a locker in t he room?" 
 
 
A: "Yes sir, I do." 
 
 
Q: "And do you have a lock on your locker?" 
 
 
A: "Yes sir." 
 
 
Q: "Now why is it, officer, if you trust your fellow officers with your life, you find it necessary to lock your locker in a room you share with these same officers?" 
 
 
A: "You see, sir -- we share the building with the court complex, and sometimes lawyers have been known to walk through that room." 
 
 
The courtroom erupted in laughter, and a prompt recess was called. 
 
 
The officer on the stand has been nominated for this year's "Best Comeback" line - and we think he'll win. _________________ For every person with a spark of genius, there are a hundred with ignition trouble. |
