Recommended: Self defense in criminal cases

Today I am going to be explaining how you can defend and prosecute Mr. Baumer. My personal opinion is that Mr. Baumer is innocent because he was defending himself since Slade had attacked him, gave him a broken arm, and put him out of working for a couple of days. But let’s start off with the defense of Mr. Baumer, than the prosecution. Mr. Baumer is guilty of killing Slade, but why would he kill him? What did Slade do to Mr. Baumer? Slade had put in a couple punches and kicks on Mr. Baumer, but he didn’t nearly kill the man, and if you say that is self defense then you do not know what self defense is. Let’s get to the actual date of the incident now, shall we? The day of the accident Slade was working for Mr. Baumer on a trip, and he “froze

  • David Hicks Speech

    951 Words  | 2 Pages

    On the evening of Ms. Heggar¡¦s death she was alone in her house. Eddie Ray Branch, her grandson, testified that he visited his grandmother on the day that she was killed. He was there till at least 6:30 p.m. Lester Busby, her grandnephew, and David Hicks arrived while her grandson was still there and they saw him leave. They then went in to visit with Ms. Heggar. While they were there, Lester repaid Ms. Heggar 80 dollars, which he owed her. They left around 7:15 p.m. and went next door to a neighboring friend¡¦s house. David Hick¡¦s went home alone from there to get something but returned within ten minutes of leaving. Because he was only gone for 5-10 minutes, prosecution theorized TWO attacks on Ms. Heggar because he could not have killed his grandmother during this 5-10 minute period alone. At 7:30 p.m., 15 minutes after the two had left, an insurance salesman called to see Ms. Heggar. He knocked for about 2 or 3 minutes and got no reply. Her door was open but the screen door was closed. Her TV was on. He claimed to have left after about 5 minutes and then he returned the next morning. The circumstances were exactly the same. With concern, he went to the neighbor¡¦s house and called the police. His reasoning for being there was because the grandmother¡¦s family had taken out burial insurance three days before she had died.

  • Causes Of Death In A. B Guthrie's 'Bargain'

    Baumer. Mr. Baumer in the first place didn’t favor Slade, at all. This is due to Slade usually stealing from Mr. Baumer, he would always treat himself to his bosses goods along the way. Also, maybe Mr. Baumer yearned to get back at Slade after he injured him. In the story it states, “That Slade. He steal whiskey and call it evaporation. He sneak things from his load. A thief, he is. And too big for me. (372) “From behind us, Dr. King said, “I think you’ve broken this man's hand.” “Lucky for him I didn’t kill him,” Slade answered. (374) “Told me this morning to go out and locate him if I could and bring him in...like Baumer had told me to, and there was a quart of whiskey right there in the store for him if he’d come and get it.” (375) Mr. Baumer was having many problems with Slade, I believe that Baumer wanted Slade to have a taste of his own medicine, and use Slade’s disadvantages against him. Mr. Bauner himself said that Slade was too much for him to handle, also why else would Bauner ask Slade to come back and work for him, denying the fact that Slade would most likely steal liquor from him. All in all, there are two sides to the death of Slade. The different sides of the story are that Slade might have caused his own death, or Mr. Baumer caused his death. After reading this short story and analyzing the case, I have come to a conclusion that Mr. Baumer most likely caused the death of his foe,

  • Analysis Of The Hammer Of God

    951 Words  | 2 Pages

    In G.K. Chesterton 's story, "The Hammer of God", a quaint village by the name of Bohum Beacon is caught up in the suspicious death of a young man, Colonel Norman Bohum. Throughout the story, we are introduced to different characters that may have had the initiative to kill Colonel Norman. One of the first accusations made in the story was against Simeon Barnes, the town 's blacksmith. Due to the blacksmith 's physical attributes and skills, the town was quick to draw the conclusion about him being the assailant—without carefully analyzing the fact that the blacksmith did not have to be the one to kill the Colonel. Although the blacksmith was the better fit as the murderer in the story, the people in the village did not realize that there was more to the murder rather than force it. They decided to take the easier route and look for the most effortless answer, rather than analyzing the situation carefully and making sure all the pieces of the murder fit. The blacksmith shows us how the easy answer is not always the right one, and if you follow up on the simple answer, it might cause conflict between the innocent.
