O’brien asked steve if he was in anyway involved with the robbery, Steve answered no he was not. Steve was not in the store during the robbery or when mr. Nesbitt died. When mr Nesbitt died the only two people in the
“He supposed to tell if there was anybody in the drugstore. He didn't say nothing so we figured it was all right.” Based on what Bobo said, Steve didn't show any sign and he didn't say anything. It could be that Steve just walked into the store on his own at the same day as
Although Steve may have known about the robbery he did not go through with it. He felt remorse after he heard of the death of the innocent storeowner. Furthermore, while there is reason to believe Harmon knew ahead of time the plan of the robbery, there is no evidence that he did his job. When Bobo took the stand in the trial he told the jury that he did not see a signal from Steve.
To give to you the testimony of a woman who has no reason to lie and is saying he wasn’t there. And finally to prove he had absolutely no connection to the crime at all. First of, all of the people who testify against steve are all criminals with heavy jail time to do. The only way out for them is to accuse someone else and put them in jail instead. Bobo, when confronted with this, says: “What you saying?
The whole jury said he is not guilty. People also said that Steve had done nothing wrong; they believed he had nothing to do with it. However, just because he was found not guilty doesn't mean Steve was innocent. Therefore, Steve was a monster. Steve was a monster because he was friends with bad people.
Nesbitt's murder. There is no true evidence he was there, however, he tells the jury he was not. Witnesses from the scene recall seeing King and Bobo but never said anything about Steve being there. Later Steve explains to the reader he is not guilty for all he did was buy mints and leave, never signaled to King and Bobo. The jury does not have access to Steve’s journal, only testimonies given in the
I think about him lying there knowing he was going to die.”’ (Myers 128). A criminal wouldn’t care if they killed somebody. A criminal like Bobo Evans and James King went and got chicken and potato wedges, but Steve was concerned and worried. This makes him a good person because he cared about what happened to Mr. Nesbitt.
“Virtuous Arguments” Reading Response Through John Duffy’s written works, he stated that Rush Limbaugh’s sexist comments were insults towards the Georgetown University law student Sandra Fluke. John Duffy describes in a well-written manner how critical it is to have knowledge in having an opinion towards a certain topic and commenting about it in a structured format. John Duffy states that rhetoric has taken a turn into a negative path to where people do not care about what they say anymore to the public. John Duffy suggested that Rush Limbaugh was being sexist towards Sandra Fluke on public radio. We should be respectful of other people’s beliefs and or values, because if we have dissimilar opinions we need to be cautious in verbalizing those thoughts so that we do not offend others.
He also says that he was there and gave no reason, he then switches this to he was only there to get mints, and finally he wasn't at all. Finally, he basically admitted in his journal that he did it. Besides the possible lies, I do believe that he may be not guilty because he did not give a specific signal. There are times where Steve shows that he could be guilty and there are times where he shows he may not be. On
Steve Harmons actions depicted his characteristics and we can, therefore, conclude that Steve Harmon is a liar as he lied under oath. Steve was also a guilt-ridden man ashamed of his actions. People who disagree may claim that Steve was undoubtedly innocent as Lorelle Henry, a witness, declared that there were only 2 people, proven to be James King and Bobo Evans, inside the store who eventually murdered Mr.Nesbitt. This may be a strong argument because it shows that Steve was not in the drugstore and could be really innocent. On the contrary, however, Steve’s job was just supposed to be a lookout and ensure that the drugstore was clear of cops or anyone inside.
Furthermore, peer pressure caused Steve to commit a serious crime. He lived in a bad neighborhood, which exposed him to dangerous people. He started hanging out with gangsters and eventually found himself in the middle of a convenience store robbery that resulted in the store owner’s death. Steve was, after some time spent with the goons, pressured into being a part of the “getover.” On page 151, James
This is important because he is so confused about his identity that he can not even accept that he is a good person anymore. At the beginning of the book, Steve’s confusion can be shown in his first journal entries. In his journal, he shows that he is confused about himself and doesn’t know what to do about it, and if he doesn’t figure it out soon, it may lead him to prison
His wording shows that he doesn’t know who he is and therefore believes he is a Monster as Ms. Petrocelli calls him. He accepts people’s judgments as his self-truth. Even though, he, himself, accepts the worst he still wants people to perceive him as a good person, especially his mom. Steve’s mom’s words cut deeper in him because his mom believes he didn’t do it while he knows he did. 5 days into the trial, his mother comes by and talks to him hoping to make him feel better, “I could still feel Mama’s pain.
I interviewed the 4rd grade student. During the interview I asked her different mathematical questions to solve. To explore her sense of calculation, I verbally asked her addition and subtraction questions such as what is 25+10 and gave her a chance to solve the problem mentally and describe her thinking. I also give her written problems to solve them on the paper. I said the number and asked her to write them.
