Jury selection

An Alabama farmer is caught in the act having sex with one of his goats and criminal charges are brought against him for "goat molestation." The farmer consults with a well-known attorney to defend him on the charges.

The attorney listens to the facts and tells the farmer that defending him on the charges will be difficult since the farmer was caught in the act, but it is possible that the case can be won. "Fortunately for you," says the attorney, "I have defended a number of these cases. If we can convince the jury that your sex with the goat was consensual, we may be able to win your acquittal. Selecting the right jury is the key here. Lucky for you, I am a master at selecting the right jury."

They go to trial. The attorney spends a long time questioning the prospective jurors before twelve jurors are finally selected. The attorney tells the farmer that he thinks they have a good jury to work with.

The trial begins. During the trial the attorney puts the farmer on the stand in order to produce testimony from the farmer that the sex with the goat was consensual. The attorney asks the farmer, "And while you were engaged in the act of intercourse with your goat, what was the goat doing?"

The farmer says, "Well, he was licking my balls."

An old man in the jury pipes up and says, "Yep, a good goat'll do that!"
