It's Hammer Time
A murder trial is about to begin in Stockton-on-San-Joaquin.
This is being prosecuted by another attorney in my office.
The defendant is accused of having beaten a couple of family members to death with a hammer.
One of the wits in the office suggested to the attorney that she should play "It's Hammer Time" by MC Hammer. ( An old rap song for the young among you.)
A small chuckle was had at this witicisim.
Yesterday, a group of prospective jurors was brought to the courtroom for jury selection.
Guess who was on the panel?
Yep.
MC Hammer, himself.
He was defered until a later date as he had a contract which would have been breeched if he had been required to sit at this time.
