True or Not, I love it

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 the 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 EXPLODED with 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.

True or not, it's another one that has been around a while. But I like it too.
