Mafia Godfather joke

A Mafia Godfather finds out his bookkeeper, Guido, has cheated him out of $10,000,000.  His bookkeeper is deaf, and that’s the reason he got the job in the first place. It was assumed Guido would hear nothing so he would never have to testify in court. When the Godfather goes to confront Guido about his missing $10m, he takes along his lawyer who knows sign language. The Godfather tells the lawyer “Ask him where the money is!”

The lawyer, using sign language, asks Guido: “Where’s the money?”

Guido signs back: “I don’t know what you’re talking about!”

The lawyer tells the Godfather: “He says he doesn’t know what you’re talking about”.

The Godfather pulls out a pistol, puts it to Guido’s head and says:” Ask him again or I’ll kill him”

The lawyer signs to Guido, “Tell him or he’ll shoot you”.

Guido trembles and signs “OK, you win. The money is in a brown briefcase, buried behind the shed at my cousin Bruno’s place”

The Godfather asks the lawyer: “What did he say?”

The lawyer replies: “He says you haven’t got the guts to pull the trigger.”

Don’t you just love lawyers?
