BALTIMORE, MARYLAND - Yesterday, a man with a strange eyeball was killed in his house by a man whose name is not specified.

Police came to the man's house due to hearing a shriek. The men who came did not suspect the murderer, however, he confessed. The murderer was sitting above where he did the body, police say. No one knows why the murderer did what he did or why he confessed.

  • Blindness In To Kill A Mockingbird By Harper Lee

    425 Words  | 2 Pages

    In the novel To Kill a Mockingbird, the author Harper Lee supplies the reader with the motif of the blindness of night and the truth of day to reveal that evils are committed in blind rage rather than in clear thought. An example of this blindness is the verdict given to Tom Robinson, an innocent black man convicted of raping Mayella Ewell. In this circumstance, Tom and the many witnessing the trial stand in the courtroom awaiting the verdict. After the clock "...bonged eleven times..." signaling the hour of that evening, the jury states that Tom Robinson is "guilty" due to their distorted perspectives (Lee 281-282). Here, even though Tom's lawyer, Atticus Finch, supplies the jury with all the evidence needed to acquit the defendant, they still convict him because they would rather trust a white man's word than a black man's word.

He was very cautious in this, “But you should have seen how wisely I proceeded -- with what caution -- with what foresight, with what dissimulation, I went to work!” and proved to be quite patient, “It took me an hour to place my whole head within the opening so far that I could see him as he lay upon his bed.’’ So he couldn’t have been totally insane, right?
