"My client got twenty years, yet he paid me in full. It just shows the system works."

You're trying my patience, Mr. Fusco. You're trying my client. I guess that makes us even.

CRIMINAL COURT, 'Don't you just HATE it when they show no emotion?'

'I think you should just plead ignorance, it's so. . . credible.'
