Many people today get involved with the wrong people, as a result, many people are wrongly accused and incarcerated for crimes they didn’t commit. In the book MONSTER, there is a witness named Steve, who is on trial for the murder of a drugstore owner. Steve was the lookout in the robbery, however, he was not responsible for Mr. Nesbitt’s death. First of all, Steve was the lookout because he planned the robbery with James King. On page 150 King says “I got a sure get over.” “You know that drugstore got burned out that time?” Later on, he asked Steve, "You down for it,?” This quote is important because it tells how Steve did attend the position of being lookout during the robbery. Steve was already the mastermind of how this was going to be.
