Steve Harmon Case Study
I will evaluate Steve Harmon. One way to describe him is strong opinionated. He always writes about how much he hates being in this situation. Every time he writes he repeats “I hate, hate, hate this place (myers 46)”. He also sets an opinion and doesn’t change it. He never changes his mind about prison. Another way to describe him is curious. He always asks his lawyer questions he would ask about the jury and how she thinks the case will turn out. He watched the jury walk in and was trying to figure them out. He wanted to know if they would possibly give him some mercy. Lastly is that he is curious about what is really happing. He says how he wants to make sense of what is happing to him. Steve Harmon is strong opinionated and curious.

    In writing his novel “Monster”, Walter Dean Myers used his experience to keep the judicial system relevant to his points while still realistic. Steve’s attorney, O’Brien, is honest about her role in the system to Steve, telling him, “My job is to make sure the law works for you as well as against you.” Instead of pretending to be crusading for a not guilty verdict, O’Brien tells the truth that she intends to help hunt down the truth both for and against Steve as an unbiased tool of the court. This means that she will insure that the jury’s predispositions do not change their verdicts, that the prejudice of the court doesn’t change the evidence given in court, and that the evidence against Steve is legitimate and/or nonexistent.…

    1) The media comes up with their own ideas on the case and sways everyone else's opinion and half of the information stated is false. The media should not play a role in the legal system and it should be left to the court. I don't think we should tell the media as much as we do because they tend to sway opinions.…

The two men, claiming to also be gay, offered to drive Matthew home, but instead brought him to an isolated area, where they took his wallet (containing $20 and a credit card) and his leather shoes.

    The Dred Scott case was a landmark case that sparked uproar from state officials after Chief Justice Taney gave the majority opinion of the court. Dred Scott was a slave owned by an army surgeon, Dr. John Emerson, with whom Scott traveled to the free state of Illinois. Following a two and a half year stay in Illinois, Scott and his master moved to Wisconsin, also a free state. However, Scott’s extended stay in Illinois gave him the power to make a legal standing to request his freedom, however Scott never followed through possibly due to his ignorance of the statute. After Emerson’s death, Scott was hired out to an army captain, which then prompted Scott to request his freedom. In June of 1847, Dred Scott went to trial in order to legally win…

    Although Harmond has followed plans many times, to some extent, he likes taking the charge, no matter how others regard him or disagree with him. Harmond has the ambition to take control of his destiny. He said that he could be a mayor or whatever he wanted to be (21). Harmond’s inclination towards controlling is also reflected in his decision to change the rendering without discussing or listening to the opinions of his wife and business partner. Even though he knows his decision will bring disagreement, he still does what he wants and gives the orders. From the quotation, we can see that he just informs Roosevelt his decision, instead of asking for advice before doing it.…

    on emotional ties to certain subjects. For some it might be a moral dilemma, like Juror #8, or past experience with a similar situation, like Juror #3. Juror #3 even mentions that kids have no respect for adults these days(12 Angry Men). This clearly shows his state of mind when it comes to youth. I would consider the experience he had with his son very truthful based on the absence of his son in his life now. I think the whole truth can only be found by comparing his side of the story and his sons. However, they aren’t the ones on trial, the boy who murdered his father is. But does Juror #3 see a strange boy in the defendants chair or his own son? You can see that emotions and past experiences can play a large role in a decision making process.…
