#1 You,
Jose Manuel Miguel Xavier Gonzales,
I find guilty of murder, and I sentence you to death by hanging.
In a few weeks snows will flee, ice will melt, all nature will be glad. But you shall not see summer.
You shall hang from a tree's branch until your corpse draws vultures from its reek and naught remains but the bare bones of a cold-blooded, saddle-colored, blood-thirsty, throat-cutting, chili-fed son-of-a-bitch!

#4 TW: That is an old-fashioned American yarn. Sometimes attributed to Judge Roy Bean, sometimes to Judge Issac Parker. Some versions are very elaborate and colorful, mentioning all four seasons, and going at length about the heritage, background and family relations and history of the defendant.

But the spirit of the tale remains.

The one bit sometimes mixed together with it that is from a different and documented case was the rebuttal from the defendant: "And you can kiss my ass until it is red, red, red!"

There are volumes of court case trivia like this that lawyers collected over the years. Some of it is very funny.

#5 Thanks, Anonymoose. As always you are a font of information, which is eventually useful. ;-) Like the sugar/salt/baking soda mixture in the drinking water -- terribly useful when trailing daughter #2 biked halfway across the country in June.

#6 A skunk like that needs to be wrapped in a quarter-section of barbed wire and dragged 40 miles through the desert by a HUMMV driven by a young private. What's left can be hung in his native village as a warning for those that might think to follow in his 'footsteps'.

#7 I personally like the way the Brits put down the Sepoy Rebellion, wrapping the bad guys in a the hide of a freshly skinned hog.

That'll fix the 72 virgin gig.
