All the truth and nothing but the truth

In a small village court the lawyer for the prosecution called his first witness. A very old lady and grandmother stood in place and the lawyer began to ask: "Mrs. White, do you know me?"

She answered: "Of course, I know you. I know you since you were a little boy and frankly you have undeceive me. You have always been blatantly, you cheated on your wife, manipulate people and badly discourse them when they leave. You think you're a great personality when you do not even have enough intelligence to avoid being scanned. Of course I know you."

The lawyer was white not knowing what to do. After thinking for a while he pointed to the other end of the room and asked: "Mrs. White, do you know the defense attorney?"

The old lady responds right away: "Absolutely. I also know him since his childhood. He is a looser, has problems with drink and cannot have a normal relationship with anyone, and as a lawyer... He is the worst one I have seen in my entire life. I also want to mention that he fools his wife with three different women, one of which, curiously, is your wife. Yes, I know him too. Absolutely."

The defender was in shock. The judge then asked both the lawyers to get closer to the bench and with a very weak voice he said to them: "If any of you two happen to ask the old goat if she knows me, I swear I´ll put you both in jail!"

Questions:

1. What did an old lady say about the first witness?

2. What did she say about the defense attorney?

3. Suppose what she would say about the judge. Do you agree that people should always tell the truth and nothing but the truth?
