Clea Koff Author/Forensics Anthropologist Clea Koff : is an amazing woman who spends her life solving crimes and speaking for those who no longer have a voice. Using her skills as a forensics anthropologist she aided in the Rwanda genocide by reassembling the skeletons and identifying individual victims and their cause of death.

And were buried in a mass grave.
He was also given a gun but he refused to use it to stop the violence. He believed he should have used Martin’s letter to prove that the three men did not kill Kinkaid. Mr. Davies took a leadership role to argue that the three were not guilty and he thought it was his responsibility to convince everyone of their innocence. The difference between leadership and responsibility is Mr. Davies believed that because he assumed leadership it was his responsibility to finish the task successfully. When the men were hung, Mr. Davies thought he had failed at his responsibility and was a poor leader.

Ardipithecus ramidus Ardipithecus ramidus or “Ardi” was discovered by Tim White and his colleagues in 1992. They discovered the female skeleton in Aramis, Ethiopia. The bones were so fragile that whole blocks of stone surrounding them had to be transported to the national museum in Ethiopia, and were excavated there. The bones were then analyzed and reconstructed using CT scans. Ardi is estimated to be 4.4 million years old and is considered to be one of the most primitive hominids, giving rise to the species Australopithecus, which in turn gave rise to Homo sapiens.

That night when Kiowa got wasted, I sort of sank down into the sewage with him… Feels like I’m still deep shit.”(Page 150) Bowker is also intelligent and is well supported by his parents, but he did not see any meaning in getting a job or even going to school. He does not have the words to explain what he went through or how he feels and he tries to hide it. Norman really wants his story told, so he sent a letter to Tim O’ Brien and ask Tim to write itfor him. He believes that Tim can express how he feels or get the right words out, but the story did not satisfy Norman and he commits suicide 8 months later in the locker room of a YMCA in his hometown. Norman’s role in this book is to help Tim to go from being a storyteller, or writer, to being a soldier.
The passage also underscores the underlying difference in morality between the man and the boy. To the man, his killing is justified because it was committed in the act of saving his son, a responsibility he says (and may well believe) was assigned to him by God. The boy, however, is concerned about the nature of the act, regardless of the circumstances. He wonders whether, having murdered someone, they can still be considered the good guys. This seed of doubt is evident in the boy's mind, since he must ask the question at all, but the father unequivocally still considers them good, or at least wants to reassure his son that he feels that way, protecting his son at all
Karl was not only insincere while asking forgiveness but also after the horrible incident with the family. He realized he was wrong but yet continued to serve as a Nazi. He acted upon his own free will when he could have stepped down. Karl made his choice and chose to stay which showed his insincerity towards the family. When children asks forgiveness and says sorry, a parent says do not say sorry but do better next time and that will
One should always do the proper and moral thing. In “Shooting an Elephant” the police officer fails to do so even though he knew from the beginning that it would have been the right thing to do. He clearly exclaims that he “…did not want to shoot the elephant” (11) but his self-conscience made him kill it. In “First they came for the Jews”, the man failed to do the proper and moral thing as well for the reason that “I was not a…” Jew or a communist or a trade unionist but he was only himself, which in the end left him with no one. However, there is also a difference in how the characters dealt with the situation.
