Most People think that we have a great justice but people don’t see the flaw in it. Hundreds of people are accused about crimes they did not commit. In 1982 Alton Logan was accused of first degree murder. His Two attorneys know he was innocent but they stayed silent. He was finally released in 2008 after 26 years. What could have been the reason that they stayed silent? Was it race or something else that caused an innocent man to be put in jail?
Steve may have been in the same place if he did not show that he was not like the people that did that crime. He was only in jail for six months but he was still scarred like any other innocent person in jail. Race could have played a factor in how this case may have turned out. In Monster Steve was found innocent but I think in real life he may have been found guilty; Due to things such as unfound info, human error, and even racism.
Lots of people also think that we can get just about all the info about crimes. But really even crimes from twenty years ago can’t be solved with modern DNA technology. With the Alton Logan story there must have been some kind of info that not was not found out now to solve this case.
Our justice system is flawed but there are more people that did crimes in jail then innocent people yes there is always going to be racism and human error that cause us to put the wrong person in jail. Maybe we need to be a lot picker on who we pick as the jury to insure that we have the correct outcome.

Response to Speak
Melinda Sordino called the cop to break up an end of summer party. Now all her friend hate her and people she does not even know hate her. She was drunk why would she even think of calling the cops. Something must have happened that made her call the cops.
Melinda Sordino quickly realizes that she hates high school and it is not going to get better any time soon. She has no friend the only person she talks to is this girl named heather. She is not a friend like Melinda wants who are joining clubs and wants to go to prom and be the queen but Melinda need someone to talk to. The school keeps changing the mascots the started as the Trojans and finished as the hornets but there were many before that. Like the wombats, the tigers, the blue devils. What really happened at the party is she was raped under a tree ever time she sees a tree branch rattle in the wind she thinks of that moment. Andy Evans was the creep that did it and now he is looking to do the same with her former best friend.
Rape is not a joke it is never funny and it should never be taken lightly tell your parent or somebody you can trust. She got attack by Andy and all most got raped again if she told he parents Andy Evans would be in jail and she would be safe.
