Do You Swear to Tell the Truth, the Whole Truth and Nothing but the
Truth?

*copied from another forum. The last one is the best*

These are from a book called Disorder in the American Courts, and are
things people actually said in court, word for word, taken down and
now published by court reporters who had the torment of staying calm
while these exchanges were actually taking place.

autopsy on him!

a
pulse?
WITNESS: No.
