OMG!:whhooo: Those are funny as all get-out.
The sad part is they were either defending or prosecuting a case.
Makes you wonder how some of them survived long enough to make it to the court room.:ponder:

Great post Rolex!
 
I've heard my share in person. We have some interesting characters in our area.

heres one of mine from when i was testifying.
Back story: It was for a DWI, and in the report i had put that the Field Sobriety Testing was done on a smooth, flat surface (side of the road). Also established my probable cause for the stop. Defense Attorney pulled up google maps of the stop location on the big screen in the court room across the room from me, which also displays on a smaller screen in front of me, which faces away from everyone else.

Attorney: "Sgt. Can you point on the map where the stop took place."
I stood up from the witness box to go over to the large screen. Attorney interrupted and stated "From your seat." So I pointed at a 60 inch screen appx 25 feet away from me.
The DA stated: "Your honor, we cannot tell where he is pointing."
Judge: "Sergeant, please point on your screen where the stop was."
Keep in mind that I'm the only one that can see this screen. So i pointed on it.
DA: "Uh.... your honor, we still can't see."


Later
Defense Attorney was trying to say that I was lying in my report about it being a level surface.
Defense Attorney: "Sergeant, I went out to the location, and poured a bucket of water out on the ground, and you know what happened?
Me: "The ground got wet?"
Defense Attorney: "Yes..... and the water didnt stay in one spot. Do you know what degree that it takes for water to flow on concrete?"
Me: "Are you asking me the angle that a liquid flows down a solid?"
Defense Attorney: "Thats exactly what I'm asking."
Me: " point 0000000000000000......"
Judge: Wrap it up Sgt."
Me: "........000000 degrees."


There were some other stuff that was really funny, but it ws accusations of discrimination that probably wouldnt go well on the forum.
