The following day newspapers devoted nearly all their coverage to the incident. The Miami Herald titled their paper with, "KENNEDY DEAD"(1), the Chicago Tribune,“ASSASSIN KILLS KENNEDY”(5) and the New York Times, “KENNEDY IS KILLED BY SNIPER AS HE RIDES IN CAR IN DALLAS”. (2) Newspapers, radio and television stations stuck to the story like superglue. The reaction to Kennedy’s death was incredible. All over the world people were crying, churches all over held special observances and media sources provided minute by minute updates like never before.
And in Florida jury had gave a 14 year-old boy who killed a girl while playing wresting moves on her, and now will be life in prison without parole. (Jessica, Reaves that some consider 16-and 17- year-old for the death penalty).

The facts tell us that Deft searched for several months but was unable to find the killer, Deft went to the 38th street pier in search of the killer, and that Deft pulled out a handgun and shot Kyle in the chest. He intended to kill because he took the gun; the search for several months and the act of going to the pier to find the killer were deliberate and planned acts. Deft’s actions are the actual and proximate cause of Kyle’s death. Deft’s act of shooting Kyle in the chest is the actual cause. Furthermore, Deft’s acts meet the “but for” rule: but for Deft’s actions, Kyle would still be alive.
Stanley Yelnats shows character development by starting out an overweight boy who does not have any friends from school and is often picked on by his classmates and the school bully, Derrick Dunne. Stanley's family is cursed with bad luck and although they do not prosper they always try to remain hopeful and look at the positives. Stanley shares these traits with his family and although he does not have a lot of self-confidence, he is not easily saddened, which helps him survive the horrendous conditions of Camp Green Lake. Throughout the story he faces many challenges such as other characters. A specific character that almost forcingly causes Stanley to grow up is the Warden.
His sentence is changed from manslaughter and he has now been sentenced to 18-20 years in prison for manslaughter, followed by four to five years in prison for illegal possession of a firearm. (Ryan, 2013) During a trial, the evidence is again presented to a court of law or a jury. Being sentenced to Capital Punishment is very unlikely to happen for Burke, as the state of Massachusetts has abolished Capital Punishment and only uses it in very severe cases where the suspect is tried federally (McCarthy, 2014) instead of regionally, like the Boston Bomber Case. Burke most likely got this sentence, because he pleaded guilty, possibly after enough evidence was gathered to prove his guilt and thereby “has taken responsibility for shooting the victim, resulting in his death, over what appears to have been a dispute about money” (Boston.com, 2013) Burke is most likely to receive this sentence, because it is exactly the crime he committed. He committed manslaughter which was proven by the messages on the phone and apparently other evidence that has been found.
During the interrogation Mr. Dufresne states that on his way home to ‘sleep it off’, he threw his gun into the Royal River; the attorney states that after searching the river for three days the gun was never recovered. The evidence provided in the trial was enough for Mr. Dufresne to be sentenced to two consecutive life terms, one for each of his victims. While seeing Mr. Dufresne entering the prison, his innocence or guilt is still questionable. Mr. Dufresne’s innocence is restricted from the audience until the introduction of Tommy, an inmate at Shawshank. After serving a period of time there is a scene in the cafeteria where inmates are discussing what they are in for and each one says that they are innocent, except for Ellis Boyd “Red” Redding, who says that he is the only guilty inmate in Shawshank.

In 1975 Ted was arrested in Utah but was released due to the little evidence, Two years later was convicted of kidnapping and escaped. Ted Bundy killed three people in Florida and was arrested but his parents bailed him out and he sold his car but police impounded it away from new owner. It was then when forensic evidence finally solved this case by finding three different hairs matching the three victims killed in Ted’s car and matched his teeth marks the a bite mark on one of the victims. He was then was sentenced to three death penalties in 1978 when Ted was recaptured and on January 24, 1989 at Railford prison in Starke, Florida Ted Bundy was executed in the electric chair. My opinion on this case was interesting yet disgusting but Ted Bundy was smart about how he attracted his victims.
