Sunday Stupidity: Trigger Happy edition
Jan 27th
Nothing’s caught my fancy yet today, so I give you a compilation of clips from one of my favorite shows: Trigger Happy TV.

If lawyers had intro songs as they entered a courtroom or walked around the well, this would be mine:

What about you?
In which Gideon answers your questions
Jan 27th
I get some reader mail now and then and it’s usually about someone’s family member in jail or some conspiracy theory. Which is fine. But then I get the “are you really a lawyer?” “Have you tried any cases?” “Did you even attend law school?”
Since it’s a Sunday and I’m tired of scouring the web to bring you the stupidest stupidity, I’ll take a break to answer that second question.
(Okay, it wasn’t reader mail; it was the imbroglio who asked)
The question was posed thusly:
If you’re a PD and you’ve read this far, please tell me: How often do you go to trial in a year? Do you work mostly felony or misdemeanor cases? Inquiring minds want to know!
Okay, inquiring mind, I will tell you. On average I am on trial 5-6 times a year. They are only felony trials and some of them are even fun!
Others weigh in more informatively.
If you have a question for the Gideon, leave it in the comments.
Back to scouring.
