The Mafia Attorney

A Mafia Godfather found out that his bookkeeper had
cheated him out of Ten (10) million dollars. Also, his
bookkeeper was deaf. That was the reason he got the
job in the first place. It was assumed that a deaf
bookkeeper would not hear anything that he might have
to testify about in court.

When the Godfather went to confront the bookkeeper
about his missing 10 million, he brought along his
attorney, who knew sign language. The Godfather told
the lawyer, "Ask him where is the 10 million bucks he
embezzled from me." The attorney, using sign language,
asked the bookkeeper where the money was. The
bookkeeper signed back, "I don't know what you are
talking about."

The attorney told the Godfather, "He says he doesn't
know what you're talking about." The Godfather pulled
out a pistol, put it to the bookkeeper's temple and
said, "Ask him again!" The attorney signed to the
bookkeeper, "He'll kill you if you don't tell him!"
The bookkeeper signed back, "OK! You win! The money is
in a brown briefcase, buried behind the shed in my
cousin Enzo's backyard in Queens!"

The Godfather asked the attorney: "Well, what'd he
say?"

The attorney replied, "He says you don't have the
nerve to pull the trigger."

That was funny
