Courtroom Humour
A man was in court for a double murder, and the judge said, "You are charged with beating your wife to death with a hammer."
A voice at the back of the courtroom yelled out, "You bastard!"
The judge continued, "You are also charged with beatingyour mother-in-law to death with a hammer."
Again, the voice at the back of the courtroom yelled out, "You damned bastard!"
The judge stopped, looked at the man in the back of the courtroom, and said, "Sir, I can understand your anger and frustration at this crime,
but I will not have any more of these outbursts from you, or I shall charge you with contempt! Now is that a problem?"
The man at the back of the court stood up and responded,
"For fifteen years, I have lived next door to that bastard, and every time I asked to borrow a hammer, he said he never had one!"
A voice at the back of the courtroom yelled out, "You bastard!"
The judge continued, "You are also charged with beatingyour mother-in-law to death with a hammer."
