Why Lawyers should never ask a witness a question if they aren't

prepared for the worst answer.

In a trial, a Southern small town prosecuting attorney called his first

witness to the stand. The witness was a grandmotherly, elderly woman.

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, 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 prosecuting 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 who 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

quiet voice, said, "If either of you bastards asks her if she knows me, I'll

throw you in jail for contempt.
