Lawyers should never ask a question if they don't already know
the answer.
In a trial, a southern small-town prosecuting attorney called
his first witness, a grand-motherly elderly woman to the stand.
He approached her and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know me?"
She responded, "Why, yes I do know you, Mr. Williams. I've
known you since you were a young boy, and frankly, you've been a
big disappointment to me. You lie, you cheat on your wife, and you
manipulate people and talk about them behind their backs. You
think you're a big shot when you haven't the brains to realize you
never will amount to anything more than a two-bit paper pusher.
Yes, I know you."
The lawyer was stunned! Not knowing what else to do, he
pointed across the room and asked, "Mrs. Jones, do you know the
defense attorney?"
She again replied, "Why, yes, I do. I've known Mr. Bradley
since he was a youngster too. He's lazy, bigoted, and he has a
drinking problem. He can't build a normal relationship with anyone
and his law practice is one of the worst in the entire state. Not
to mention he cheated on his wife with three different women. One
of them was your wife. Yes, I know him."
The defense attorney almost died. The judge asked both
counselors to approach the bench and, in a very quite voice, said,
"If either of you idiots asks her if she knows me, I'll send you to
the electric chair!"
