Lawyers for 2 in 'dirty bomb' terror case allege misconduct at jail.

MIAMI — Attorneys for two terrorism suspects tied to an alleged al-Qaida dirty bomb suspect are asking for the dismissal of a federal indictment against them based on a jailer's mishandling of a Quran and intimidating jail cell searches that removed handwritten papers in Arabic.

The defense claims the seizures from the cells of Adhan Amin Hassoun and Kifah Wael Jayyousi in May and June amount to government misconduct and an unconstitutional intrusion on trial preparation.

Jailers also disrespectfully tossed Hassoun's Quran on his bunk and left 8,000 pages of trial papers in disarray, his attorney Kenneth Swartz said in motions filed Friday.


Yes, it has come to that.
"Your honor, my client was planning to set off a nuke somewhere, but he should be excused because his holy book was tossed onto a bunk"

We will now conduct a short review of inferences drawn from observations of this case:

1. What's the difference between a lawyer and a vulture?

One is a foul-smelling, carrion-eating scavenger; the other is a bird.

2. What's the difference between a lawyer and a catfish?

One is a slimy, cold-blooded bottom-feeder; the other is a fish.

3. What's the difference between a hyena and a lawyer?

A hyena will laugh even when nobody gets hurt.

4. What's the difference (if any) between a lawyer and a leech?

One is a repulsive blood-sucking parasite, the other one lives in the water.

5. Rattlesnake and lawyer?

(Two acceptable answers)
Some people actually like rattlesnakes.
Rattlesnakes live by making a rich diet of vermin, lawyers live by making vermin rich.

#1 A blind bunny and a blind snake were blundering through the woods and slammed into one another. In order to make peace, they agreed to have a game of "guess what I am." The snake went first and said, "Hmm, you have long ears, soft fur, and a short, cottony tail. I guess you're a bunny!"

"That's right!" said the Bunny. "Now it's my turn. Let's see, you're low, slimy, and you have no balls. Hey, you're a lawyer!"
