I think the fact that he later transcribed it exactly makes the story a winner.

I also like the, "No shit sherlock," and also the judge being so very judge-y ("I am terribly concerned about this."). Awesome

That is a story that the convict will NOT tell in prison. I would think that you get absolutely no benefit to your reputation from being beat down by the court reporter.
