09/30/13 Grif.Net – Best “Comebacks”

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 police officer’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.’
