A defense attorney was cross examining a police officer during a felony trial - it went like this:

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 locker room in the police station -- 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 that 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, that you find it necessary to lock your locker in a room you share with those officers?"

A: "You see sir, we share the building with a court complex, and sometimes defense attorneys have been known to walk through that room."
