That's No Excuse

It was a particularly horrific crime, and the judge could not refrain from saying so to the defendant.

As the defendant was brought before him for arraignment, the judge said, "You have been charged with throwing your mother-in-law out of a fourth-story window."

The defendant responded, "I did it without thinking, your Honor."

The judge scolded, "That's no excuse! What if someone had been passing underneath at the time?"

Tell me another Joke!
