Court Joke

[A. BOOZER]

A man is in court for murder and the judge says, “You are charged

with beating your wife to death with a hammer.”

Then a voice at the back of the court says, “You bastard!”

The judge continues, "You are also charged with beating your daughter to death with a hammer.”

Again the voice at the back of the court says, “You bastard!”

The judge says, “Now, we cannot have any more of these outbursts from you or I shall charge you with contempt, now what is the problem?”

Then the man at the back of the court says, 'Fifteen years I lived

next door to that bastard and every time I asked to borrow a hammer

he said he never had one!'
