Decker hold (1 year)

[page 146, line 4] Now Decker is something else. I was told early in my career that if you do something real stupid or real good, do it in private or you’ll be notarized for it. No one pays any attention to what you do that’s okay. So just do okay and you’ll be okay.…...

Traffic fatalities

[page 145, line 5] Richburg had another peculiarity about him. In the accident investigating days we used to have a real hell to pay if we had a traffic fatality on our accident districts. One day in the snow this gentleman tells me as a witness, he says, “I saw this fellow just lean over&hell...

Richburg and domestic violence

[page 142, line 25] SHERIFF BOWLES: The hour is late. I’ll be brief. I look at the heading on this handout by Albert Pike. Albert spoke very eloquently about what we’re supposed to be doing in our society. I’ll tell you as a practical person, that’s happened in Dallas County ...

Thurgood Marshall

[page 141, line 13] But before I became a lawyer I was covering federal court one day, KLIF, and there was a hearing before T. Whitfield Davis. And it was one of these cases involving the Dallas Independent School District desegregation case. And it had gone up to the Supreme Court, had come back do...

Ed Mason and evidence

[page 140, line 11] JUDGE VANCE: Mr. Weinberg. MR. WEINBERG: Well, thank you a lot. I feel like I’m back in the Army. The W’s always get called last. I don’t know what I’m going to add to this august storytelling. I do remember Judge Vance and Ed Mason and I wound up in a&hel...

Hannibal and visiting judge

[page 134, line 3] I will tell one other story, but I’m going to clear up one thing. You know, it’s kind of funny that Randy should mention that guy Hannibal Lecter. When I went to watch that movie, I knew immediately that I had been involved before with somebody very similar to that. Be...

Mother foxes

[page 133, line 5] The only time I ever saw him at a loss for words — and Judge, you may remember this. See, he had a court reporter. Unlike this lady who takes things down with a Stenograph, she wrote it out in shorthand. And I mean she was fast. But we had a…...

Judge Ellis and objections

[page 131, line 25] You know, Judge Ellis — this was the first court I was in. Everybody said — my father-in-law told me, he was a lawyer and an ex-FBI agent, he says, “You really want to get in Guthrie’s court; Jim Guthrie is the most wonderful person.” And he was; he ...

Holdup and mask

[page 130, line 13] We did — you know, when you think about the criminal lawyers that we had then, you can tell by the names. I mean, what have we got up here? Well, we’ve got Mike and Charlie, you know, and Ken, Stan. But back at the beginning when I first started out,…...

Lucas and fake case file

[page 129, line 18] I look around the room here, and Hugh Lucas tells about practical jokes. He forgot to tell about the practical joke about the case that came out of the indictment — or the indictment came out of the Grand Jury. Remember that, Hugh? You know, we’d get our cases every w...
