Silence in Court:
Jim is in the dock facing a double murder charge.
“You are charged with beating your wife to death with a spanner”, says the Judge.
Hearing this charge, a man in the public gallery screams, “You bastard.”
Ignoring this interruption the Judge continues, “You are also charged with beating your wife’s lover to death with a spanner.”
Again the man in the public gallery screams, “You bastard.”
Irritated by this second interruption, the Judge turns her attention to the gallery and says, “Sir I understand your outrage at what are terrible crimes but I will not tolerate another such outburst in this courtroom. Interrupt again and you will be held in contempt of court.”
“I’m sorry your honour”, said the man, “but I’ve lived next door to this bastard for 12 years and every time I’ve asked to borrow a spanner he told me he didn’t have one.”
