[ 4] [ 5] Most language is spoken language, [ 6] and most words once they are [ 7] uttered, vanish forever into the air. [ 8] [ 9] [10] But such is not the case with language spoken [11] during courtroom trials, for there exists an [12] army of court reporters whose job it is to [13] take down and preserve every statement [14] made during the proceedings. [15] [16] [17] Court is now in session, [18] and here are my favorite transquips, [19] all recorded by America's keepers of the word: [20] [21] [22] [23] [24] [25] [26] ----- TRASK, MASON AND BRITT COURT REPORTERS ----- [27] PAGE 3 [28] [ 1] [ 2] Q: What is your brother-in-law's name?

[21] Q: And then Tommy Lee pulled out his gun and shot James [22] in the fracas? [23] A: (After a hesitation) No sir, just above it. [24] [25] [26] ----- TRASK, MASON AND BRITT COURT REPORTERS ----- [27] PAGE 4 [28] [ 1] [ 2] Q: Doctor, did you say he was shot in the woods? [ 3] A: No, I said he was shot in the lumber region.

[18] A: A lot of things that I didn't know about. [19] [20] Q: And who is this person you are speaking of? [21] A: My ex-widow said it. [22] [23] Q: How did you happen to go to Dr. Cheney? [24] A: Well, a gal down by the road had had several of her [25] children by Dr. Cheney and said he was really good. [26] ----- TRASK, MASON AND BRITT COURT REPORTERS ----- [27] PAGE 5 [28] ----- LAST LINE: NO BLANK LINE AFTER THIS LINE ----- Q: Do you know how far pregnant you are right now? A: I will be three months November 8th. Q: Apparently then, the date of conception was August 8th? A: Yes. Q: What were you and your husband doing at that time? Q: Mrs. Smith, you do believe that you are emotionally unstable? A: I used to be. Q: How many times have you committed suicide? A: Four times. Q: Did he pick the dog up by the ears?

A: All my autopsies have been on dead people. ----- TRASK, MASON AND BRITT COURT REPORTERS ----- PAGE 6 Q: Were you acquainted with the decedent? A: Yes, sir. Q: Before or after he died? Q: Officer, what led you to believe the defendant was under the influence? A: Because he was argumentary, and he couldn't pronunciate his words. Q: What happened then? A: He told me, he says, "I have to kill you because you can identify me." Q: Did he kill you? A: No. Q: Mrs. Jones, is your appearance this morning pursuant to a deposition notice which I sent to your attorney? A: No. This is how I dress when I go to work. Q: Have you ever been arrested? A: Yes. Q: What for? A: Aggravating a female. ----- TRASK, MASON AND BRITT COURT REPORTERS ----- PAGE 7 Q: You say you're innocent, yet five people swore they saw you steal a watch. A: Your Honor, I can produce 500 people who didn't see me steal it. Judge: Well, gentlemen of the jury, are you unanimous? Foreman: Yes, your Honor, we're all alike -- temporarily insane. Q: When he went, had you gone and had she, if she wanted to and were able, for the time being excluding all the restraints on her not to go also, would he have brought you, meaning you and she, with him to the station? A: MR. BROOKS. Objection. That question should be taken out and shot. Q: At the time you first saw Dr. McCarty, had you ever seen him prior to that time? Q: Did the lady standing the driveway subsequently identify herself to you? A: Yes, she did. Q: Who did she say she was? A: She said she was the owner of the dog's wife. ----- TRASK, MASON AND BRITT COURT REPORTERS ----- PAGE 8 Q: I understand you're Bernie Davis's mother. A: Yes. Q: How long have you known him? Q: Now, I'm going to show you what has been marked as State's Exhibit No. 2 and ask if you recognize the picture? A: John Fletecher. Q: That's you? A: Yes, sir.

A: Immediately before the impact, my right foot was located at the immediate end of my right leg. Q: Have you ever beaten your wife? A: No. I might slap her around a little, but I never beat her. Q: Just what did you do to prevent the accident? A: I closed my eyes and screamed as loud as I could. ----- TRASK, MASON AND BRITT COURT REPORTERS ----- PAGE 9 Q: What can you tell us about the truthfulness and veracity of this defendant? A: Oh, she'll tell you the truth. She said she was going to kill the son of a gun -- and she did. Q: And another reason that you didn't want to go out there was because you feared for your life? A: Yes, I did. Q: Why? A: That's a rowdy neighborhood, and there are very, very bad persons that will do bodily harm and seriously kill someone. Q: Where were you on the bike at the time? A: On the seat. Q: I meant where is the street. Before we recess, let's listen in on one last exchange involving a child: Q: And lastly, Gary, all your responses must be oral, O.K.? A: Oral. Q: How old are you?
