IN A TRIAL, IN A SMALL TOWN in TEXAS , A PROSECUTING ATTORNEY CALLED HIS
FIRST WITNESS, A MEXICAN GRANDMOTHER, AN ELDERLY WOMAN TO THE STAND.

HE APPROACHED HER AND ASKED, MRS. SANCHEZ,"DO YOU KNOW ME?" SHE
RESPONDED, "SI, I MEAN, JESS I KNOW YOU MR. WILLIAMS. I KNOWN YOU SINCE
YOU WERE A CHAVALITO AND FRANKLY YOU’VE BEEN A BIG DISAPPOINTMENT TO ME.
YOU LIE, YOU CHEAT ON YOUR WIFE, AND YOU MANIPULATE PEOPLE AND TALK ABOUT
THEM BEHIND THEIR BACKS. YOU THINK YOU’RE A BIG SHOT WHEN YOU HAVEN’T THE
BRAINS TO REALIZE YOU WILL NEVER AMOUNT TO NOTHIN’ BUT A TWO BIT
PAPERPUSHER. YES I KNOW YOU."

THE LAWYER WAS STUNNED. NOT KNOWING WHAT ELSE TO DO, HE POINTED ACROSS
THE ROOM AND ASKED, MRS. SANCHEZ, DO YOU KNOW THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY?

SHE AGAIN REPLIED, "WHY JESS I DO. I’VE KNOWN MR. RODRIGUEZ SINCE HE WAS
A CHAVALITO TOO. HE’S LAZY, GORDO, AND HE HAS A DRINKING PROBLEM. HE
CAN’T HAVE A NORMAL RELATIONSHIP WITH NOBODY AND HE HAS THE WORST LAW
PRACTICE IN THE STATE. HA! AND NOT TO MENTION HE CHEATED ON HIS WIFE WITH
THREE DIFFERENT PUTAS. ONE OF THEM WAS YOUR WIFE. YOU MEMBER? I KNOW MR.
RODRIGUEZ, HIS MAMA IS NOT PROUD OF HIM."

THE DEFENSE ATTORNEY ALMOST DIED.

THE JUDGE ASKED BOTH COUNSELORS TO APPROACH THE BENCH AND IN A VERY QUIET
VOICE SAID, "IF EITHER OF YOU PENDEJO’S ASK HER IF SHE KNOWS ME, I"LL
SEND YOU TO THE ELECTRIC CHAIR.
