Overheard at the pd’s office
Public defender 1 to public defender 2 about a client who believes God will help her obtain a verdict of not guilty:
PD1: Well, what do I do now?
PD2: Look at it this way. If she gets convicted, she can file a petition for writ of habeas corpus alleging ineffective assistance of divine counsel in violation of the Sixth Commandment.
You had to be there.
