JOKE OF THE WEEK: 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 policemans 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 erupted in laughter, and a prompt recess was called. The officer on the stand has been nominated for this years Best Comeback line -- and we think hell win.
