Judge Boyd sentences Keith Thompson “Your Honor, my client is a little short on good judgment.”

Judge: “This is your third offense. I’m sentencing you to five years.” Short guy: “Five years? Your Honor, with my height that’s gonna feel like ten!” The judge looked down at the short repeat offender and said, “I’m giving you a brief sentence.” The little guy beamed and replied, “Aw, thanks Your Honor! That’s the nicest thing anyone’s ever said about both my height and my prison term!” “Your Honor, my client is a little short on good judgment.” Judge: “Then I’ll give him a little short sentence… and throw in a booster seat for the courtroom!” Why did the short repeat offender always smile at sentencing? Because no matter how long the sentence was, it still looked short from down there! Judge: “You’ve been here so many times, I’m giving you a suspended sentence.” Short guy: “Suspended? Great! Does that come with a step stool so I can reach it?”
