Flog #4
People of the court I feel that it is in everyones best interest that this criminal Mr. Hyde, is put away. This misled individual suffers from a diseased mind whos diagnoses is destruction and chaos to those who are around him. For it is not this mans fault that he is mad in the mind, but a crime as severe as murder cannot go unpunished just because someones discrepancies of right and wrong can be blamed on their mind that went mad. If we let this man free who knows what other horrors will uproar. What if the victim was your friend, your brother, your husband or someone you knew ? If you had the opportunity to sentence the cause of what killed a honest man you once knew , wouldn't you do all you could in your power to see it through? Finding justice not only for the crime he committed but putting the death of that person to rest and potentially keeping a very unfortunate incident like this from happening to someone else's friend, brother, husband etc. A mentally unstable person has no place in a society circulating with innocent individuals that are being put in danger because a jury let one bad apple roam.

Sara,
ReplyDeleteI enjoy the convincing voice of your writing. Your point of view is clearly connected to the writing assignment you were given. A diseased mind that is a threat to society is your main focus thus far. I would like to see you push a little further and suggest some other ways that Hyde is a threat to the Victorian society (use your knowledge of the Victorian morals, values, fears, etc.). I see that you briefly tapped into what you know will be the defense attorney's argument (insanity plea). Try to support this a little more with facts, statistics, quotes, etc. This is a great starting point. Focus a little more on elaboration and distinct organization of your points into paragraphs. Best of luck.
