The below excerpts appeared in the Salt Lake Tribune. They were taken from real court records and actually happened?

Q: Were you present when that picture was taken?
Were you present in court this morning when you were sworn in?
Q: You say that the stairs went down to the basement?

A: It was in the evening. The autopsy started about 5:30 P.M.
Q: And Mr. Huntington was dead at the time, is that correct?
A: No, you idiot, he was sitting on the table wondering why I was performing an autopsy on him!
Now doctor, isn?t it true that when a person dies in his sleep, in most cases he just passes quietly away and doesn?t know anything about it until the next morning?
