Murderer in Court

[Winnie Huang]

The judge says to a double-homicide defendant, "You're charged with
beating your wife to death with a hammer."

A voice at the back of the courtroom yells out, "You *******."

The judge says, "You're also charged with beating your mother-in-law
to death with a hammer."
The voice in the back of the courtroom yells out, "You God-damned *******."

The judge stops, and says to the guy in the back of the courtroom,
"Sir, I can understand your anger and frustration at this crime. But
no more outbursts from you, or I'll charge you with contempt. Is that
a problem?"

The guy in the back of the court stands up and says, "For fifteen
years, I've lived next door to that *******, and every time I asked to
borrow a hammer, he said he didn't have one."
