Five Godawful YouTube Video Depositions

Gregory D. Luce / November 2, 2011 / Bitter by Numbers, Lawyer / 9 Comments

Bitter Lawyer is launching a new deposition video series shortly and, in celebration, we’ve collected five of the most heinous video depo excerpts on YouTube.

Or in how to be an asshat.

Lawyer Joe Jamail took the deposition of an expert witness, Texas style. Highlights include the quote about incipient verbal diarrhea, Joe calling one of the attorneys “fat boy,” and the deponent asking “are you threatening to fight?” Actually, watch the whole thing, it nearly leads to a fight.

I am not going to sit for 10 minutes listening to some woman (likely pig-like homely), with her panting and moaning in the background, even if the male allegedly pleasuring said pig eventually puts his head into the picture to verify that he was being recorded.

I have long stood up for the fact that it is quality, not quantity, to go after. Therefore, I will not have sex at all, rather than have sex with pig-like creatures, even if it results in the fact that my member goes unused.

And who really wants to hear the audio of a porn anyway? It really kills me that people have to be told this.
