  • Essay On Myrtle Wilson's Death

    486 Words  | 1 Pages

    Late last night on July 17th, a woman of the name Myrtle Wilson was found dead in the middle of the street around midnight. It is pretty clear, based off of the scene that it happened because of the impact of a car moving at high speeds. The area where it happened had signs of skid marks going left and right, right before where Mrs. Wilson was hit. There were very few witnesses to what happened due to the time of night that this occurred but one witness stated “I was just closing up my store when I saw some woman who looked like she was crazy run into the street with several bruises and scars, she saw the car that was coming and seemed that she expected it to stop, but it didn’t. After she was hit, the mysterious car was gone in seconds like as if nothing happened”. Based off if this Witnesses words, police are now trying to look into the reasoning for the bruises that she had before the accident happened. Another Witness stated, “as I was walking home from my friend’s house I noticed a woman lying dead on the ground and it scared me to death, then the car that had hit her sped by me and I could see a man and woman in the car but I didn’t recognize them. They were gone within seconds”. Police have been detailing the scene for over 24 hours at this point but cannot pin point the car

    Those two heirs were Turtle Wexler and Judge Ford.  Judge Ford thought this already and she figured out that Turtle thought the same when she was interviewing her about the fireworks.  Turtle, then, had said that when she found the body in the Westing house, it looked like a wax dummy and not a real life dead body.  J.J, earlier during the reading of the will, had thought the same thing, that the body did not look real.  Following up on that fact, always if someone is murdered, especially someone of that importance, an autopsy is performed to figure out the murderer.  This ALWAYS happens, the police should have been all over the case.  But, the body did not get an autopsy, even the Judge thought it was not unlawful to have an autopsy, and the only reason the cops came was because of the bomb cases, but those came later.  So, since the autopsy didn’t happen, the body must be fake!

  • Hired Guns In A Criminal Case

    1530 Words  | 4 Pages

    The idea of homicide by necessity must be furthered examined to properly understand the intent of their “ crime.” The murder of the young boy exemplifies the idea of “ necessity by murder,” considering the act was done out of desperation and total fright of life. The event occurred because the continual doubt facing the sailors prompted them to come to a consensus where the youngest would be sacrificed in an attempt to supply the already resourceless crew with food in hopes they soon reached land or were rescued.The murder of the child was not done to suffice personal malice or as a method of revenge, but rather an act of desperation by individuals who aspire to live past their present misfortunes. This idea supports Lord Bacon’s claim regarding the necessity to conserve life. He provides a written example that exemplifies whether homicide by necessity is justifiable. He states “ so if the divers be in dangers of drowning by the carting away of some boat or barge ,and one of them get to some plank, or on the boat’s side to keep himself above water, and another to save his life thrust from it, whereby he is drowned, this is neither se defendendo nor by misadventure, but justifiable,” (37). His claim follows the idea of homicide by necessity similarly found in The Queen v Dudley and Stephens considering in this instance the thrust was executed with the purpose of saving one’s life. It is, therefore, unfair to classify their actions as a homicide since such word carries a negative connotation and taints their ideas as cruel and malice. It is quintessential for the legal system to understand the motives and intent behind the actions occurred at sea by these men to properly determine their act was done to survive. Evidently, it is clear through their desperations that the crime executed in case
