Another little known fact: if you say this in an actual courtroom, people don't appreciate the reference as much as I thought they would. Instead, they get angry. Dude, lighten up, your honor. LFMF.

I served on a jury once, and the defense attorney came out and said, "You're not going to hear anyone in here say, 'You can't handle the truth!'"

Remember me my favorite judge quote: "Mister, we are not here to determine what is true or not."

Na, it wasn't such an important court or case.

It was just about children custody and whether one parent allegations of abuse were forged or not.

You need to follow up with, "You're out of order! The whole trial is out of order!"

That movie is a really bad example of courtroom behavior, let alone courtroom behavior under the UCMJ. The judge would not have allowed a fraction of Caffey's shit.
