One Simple Sentence
There was an accused bank burglar at a bail hearing who was told by the judge his bond was set at $100,000. The judge explained to him that meant he could post $10,000 in cash to be released pending trial. He then asked the accused if he had $10,000 for bail to be able to go home. His answer did him in with one simple sentence.
The accused replied, “Judge, if I had $10,000, I wouldn’t have been holding up the bank”. The US Attorney asked for a copy of the transcript—it was the easiest conviction ever.
