George Costanza defense falls flat

You may remember the Seinfeld episode wherein George Costanza is called in by his boss to be reprimanded for having sex with the cleaning lady on his work desk.

"Was that wrong?" George asks.

Because if I had known that was against the rules, I certainly wouldn't have done it, George says.

A jailer in Pearland tried the same thing, telling Judge Ed Denman he didn't know it was against the law to have sex with a female inmate.

He got a year in jail.
