Lawyer fails When Harriet had been declared missing, Jeffrey Pritchett knew things had gotten far out of hand. ""Did she find out about him and Angela? Where was she? What had she done?"" thought Jeff, when the police arrived. Unable to provide any satisfactory replies to them, he became the primary suspect and spent the night in jail. The next morning, in court, matters were made worse when witness after witness came to the stand testifying to all sorts of horrible threats that the accused made to his wife. Finally, Jeff's lawyer got up to the stand. ""Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, I have something quite exciting to tell you. If you would all please direct your attention towards the door behind me on my left, you will see the supposedly dead woman walk in on her own two feet."" There was a loud murmuring in the courtroom as all eyes turned towards the door. After a few seconds of anxious waiting, the lawyer said, ""To be honest with you, nobody is going to be walking through the door. However, the fact that your eyes all turned towards the door makes it quite obvious that you are not sure beyond the shadow of a doubt about my client's guilt."" Pleased with his closing statement, the lawyer contentedly sits back for the verdict. To his surprise, the jury decided that the man was guilty. ""But how could you say that he is guilty? Didn't I prove it to you?"" questioned the lawyer. ""It is true that we all turned towards the door,"" one old lady explained, ""but there was person who didn't."" ""Who's that!?"" ""Your client.""
