| After a trial had been going on for three days, Harrison, the man accused of committing the crimes, stood up and approached the judge`s bench. "Your Honor, I would like to change my plea from innocent to guilty of the charges." The judge angrily banged his fist on the desk. "If you`re guilty, why didn`t you say so in the first place and save this court a lot of time and inconvenience?" he demanded. Harrison looked up wide-eyed and stated, "Well, when the trial started I thought I was innocent, but that was before I heard all the evidence against me." |
