An Inspector Calls In this essay I will examine each character in detail to establish if any of them are responsible for Eva Smith's death. I shall also consider Eva's part in her own downfall. Inspector Goole had a way of making people think and do what he wanted. Although he didn't seem to get any extra information out of the other characters he soon made them realise that Eva Smith had died a horribly painful death and they had all contributed in making her want to end her life. He got them to tell each other their sins and secrets.
Nothing could bring back the lives lost and undo the damage done to fin, not even a lifelong sentence. When Tom and Brendan visited Daniel he kept on repeating “I’m sorry, I fucked up everything” Daniel felt guilt for what he had done. Daniel was aggressive and he didn’t listen to anyone but he had feelings. Isn’t it enough punishment for a young man to have to live with the fact that he had killed his friends and injured his cousin for the rest of his life? “(Daniel) he had
“She sometimes begged Justine to forgive her unkindness but much oftener accused her of having caused the deaths of her brothers and sister.”(50) Madame Moritz alternately asks forgiveness yet still dispenses blame upon Justine, accusing her of being responsible for the deaths of her brothers and sister. We never learn how Justine feels about this accusation, but there is a lingering sense of guilt that makes her vulnerable when William is murdered. She blames herself for not protecting him. When Justine is arrested for the murder, Victor wallows in guilt because he knows it is the Creature who has killed William and that he is responsible for
Applicable Theories of Criminal Behavior Social Risk Factors: He didn’t always live in poverty, but once his family wasn’t there he was in poverty. He also received rejection by his peers, when they often teased him because of his deformity. Parental and Family Risk Factors: His mother used a very authoritarian style to shape and control her sons. This caused irreparable damage to Gein throughout growing up. His mothers parental monitoring was too much, she never let Ed do anything and always kept him hidden.
This book encourages me even more to pursue my dream of becoming a Police Officer. This tragedy also made clear that we shouldn’t trust anyone, because even the most inoffensive individual could be a psychopath. However, I consider that the family went through a great deal of pain. I can’t visualize my brother, any relative or even people close to me of being a murderer. I can’t imagine the pain Ted’s mother experienced, knowing that his model son was sentenced to death after being convicted of
Also, Perry and Dick weren’t judged like mentally ill person even thought their lawyer called twice some psychiatrists to make some reports. Even though I do not think that death sentence is worth the crime they did, I do not think an instant death actually worth’s all the suffering they made, a life sentence was not long enough to keep them from killing again. For example, when Dick was free from prison the first time, he killed the Clutters. For the reasons cited above, I think that justice was
Sociologically, grieving within families is not an easy task. Each family member reacts to death differently and forces family members to make changes in their lives in order to adjust to life without this family member. Raney and Charles had a hard time accepting the suicide of Uncle Nate. When Charles voiced his opinion that Uncle Nate was clearly depressed, obsessive-compulsive, and crippled from his life experiences, thus needing psychological help in order to heal, Raney took it as an insult. In Raney’s mind, Charles was placing blame on her, her family, and specifically, her mother who spent most of her time taking care of Uncle Nate.
He was wrongfully convicted by an all-white jury, which at that time, racism was the norm. The jury would never accept a black man’s word over a white women’s, in spite of the proof. One reason you could tell that Tom Robinson did not commit rape was because he was physically incapable because of his broken arm. Mayella and her father were clearly lying about the rape, but Tom was not released.
Ted may also have been catapulted into his killing streak by the revelation that his mother had deceived him his whole life (by claiming that she was his sister), creating resentment towards women. Due to his troubled upbringing, it is impossible to know for certain whether Ted Bundy was born a psychopath or became one as a result of the poor care and guidance he received as a child and later as an adolescent, during a period in his life where his fatal character flaws began to blossom. However, regardless of the origin of his immorality, it is undeniable that Ted Bundy was truly the embodiment of
In the Crucible, Abigail is tormented by the fact that she had been caught out having an affair with John Proctor. This creates conflict between John’s wife Elizabeth and Abigail. Abigail is devastated that she cannot be with John and lashes out in fury and creates chaos in the heart of the town with her false accusations within Salem. Abigail’s uncontrollable acts rise which result in the hanging of many people, ultimately destroying the love of her life. She was blinded by her own problems in life that she couldn’t see her ways, although to John, Abigail was transparent.
