Furthermore, Martyn blackmailed Dean. “Dean in his black biker gear, pale face ugly and even whiter than usual”. Martyn would always have something mean to say about Dean thus blackmailing him. Supposedly Dean blackmailed him first. But Dean never intended to kill him. Martyn took things way too far. Martyn had the right plan/idea to use against dean and to fraud him for his dad’s death. Finally, he lies to Alex, copes, social worker, Dean, and Aunty Jean. “Dad is sick” Martyn says to his Aunt. He doesn’t want anyone to know that he killed his father so he covers it up with lies. He confirms that he lied because he was scared. He also said “it’s only wrong if you get caught. He didn’t care about lying to everyone he just didn’t want to get all the blame for what happened.
