One day at court, the prosecutor called the first witness to the stand, and in came a gossipy old woman.
The prosecutor started by asking her,
“Do you know who I am?”
The old woman replied.
“Yes, you’re John Kim, and I must say I’m very disappointed in you. You’re greedy, you treat others like dirt, and you’ve been keeping a mistress for years! Of course I know who you are.”
The prosecutor was stunned, but tried to carry on with the proceedings.
He pointed at the defense lawyer and said,
“Do you know who he is?”
“Yes, he is Kenneth Skye. And I must say is that I’m very disappointed in him too. He is constantly drunk, gambles all the time, and is one of the worst lawyers around! Of course I know who he is.”
The Judge immediately called the prosecution and defense to approach the bench.
Once they were close enough, the Judge scowled at the pair and said.
“Don’t you *dare* ask her if she knows me.”
