Best comeback of the year

[Squid]

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 policeman'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.'

The courtroom EXPLODED with laughter, and a prompt recess was called.

It is rumored that the officer on the stand has been nominated for this
year's 'Best Comeback' line -- if so, we think he'll win.
