An old Kansas lawyer is defending his client, accused of biting a man’s ear off in a bar fight in the local saloon.
He asks the witness: “So, did you actually see my client bite that man’s ear off?”
Witness says: “No, sir, I did not”.
But instead of just sitting down and STFU, the lawyer (who likes to hear himself talk) slowly and deliberately asks him:
“Then how can you sit here in this courtroom, in front of our God and this jury, and swear under oath that my client bit that man’s ear off?”
Witness shrugs his shoulders and replies: “Well…I saw him spit it out”.
Lesson?
When you’ve made your case, just sit down and STFU. No need to keep talking : )
Happy Friday!
