Mr. Myers’ testimony revealed that the Lien Unit seized monies that were in his bank accounts; two accounts that are separate from his personal account. Mr. Myers stated that those two accounts are separate because the money in the accounts is not his personal money. One of the accounts was set up for his mother because of her mental state; he has Power of Attorney over her insurance and her health. He stated his mother received a settlement from the insurance company because of the damages done to her house. The check was issued in his mother’s name; he put the money in a separate account titled Renovations. Mr. Myers stated the money in that account is not used for his expenses; the account has nothing to do with him. He stated that when all of this happened, he spoke with the Lien Unit and was informed that if the money is his mother’s money; the Lien Unit does not want it. Mr. Myers stated he provided a copy of the check that was written to his mother to open the Renovations account; that check should bear witness for itself. He stated that the other account that is separate from his personal account is his business account for construction wiring. The account shows that the payroll is paid every single week to him and to other individuals when they are needed or hired. He stated that the rest of the money in that account pays for materials, fuel, etc. to make the business continue to thrive. Mr. Myers stated his business has suffered exceptionally since the
Mrs. Bias stated that the Lien Unit took money out of her account without notifying them; they received a letter after the money was already on hold. Mrs. Bias stated she sent the Lien Unit bank statements, direct deposit statements, copies of checks from the credit union, and paid the credit union to pull the drive-thru video to show that she was the one that made the deposits. She stated that the Lien Unit told her the information she provided was not sufficient. She stated she put Mr. Bias’ name on the checking account so that when he was working his checks were direct deposited. In addition, Mrs. Bias stated that the NCP was never on her savings account, which is the account the money was taken from. Mrs. Bias stated the NCP has been laid off since March 2015; there is no money being deposited in the account by neither the NCP nor anyone else other than herself since 2013 because they were separated for a while. The NCP stopped direct deposit for his checks. Mrs. Bias stated that the money she did prove was hers, she sent the Lien Unit proof of direct deposits from her job; the Lien Unit gave her part of the that money back, not all of it. So now, at the hearing, she has proof that the remainder of the money is hers. She

Monster is an example of what Patty Campbell would call a “landmark book.” Texts such as these “encourage readers to interact with the text and with one another by employing a variety of devices, among them ambiguity” (Campbell 1) Because it is told through the eyes of Steve himself, the plot can be difficult to decipher. It is ambiguous whether he is innocent or guilty of being involved with the crime. Steve learned to make things unpredictable from his film teacher Mr. Sawicki who teaches him, “If you make your film predictable, they’ll make up their minds about it long before it’s over” (19). Steve took his teacher’s advice and made this film script entirely unpredictable,
Imagine the punches, the kicks, the smashing on the table, just to realize the character traits can change everything. Monster by Walter Dean Myers evolves on the fact that being tough is key within life. Steve Harmon, 16 year old boy, black male, is being accused of felony murder. A court case involving James King and Steve Harmon is taking place to see who is not guilty. Steve writes in his journal of the experiences in jail. Through Steve’s writing it is clear that one must be strong and avoid showing weakness.
Imagine being on trial for a crime you did not commit. In the book Monster, by Walter Dean Myers, Steve Harmon, a nice sixteen-year-old boy living in Harlem, New York was in a situation just like this. Steve was on trial after being accused of being a lookout during a robbery and murder at a neighborhood drugstore. Steve is innocent because he never gave a signal to the robbers that the store wasn’t clear of people and he did not know Bobo, one of the other suspected robbers. Steve was just in the store shopping for mints at the time of the crime.

Have you ever wondered what makes one story more interesting than another? In “The Treasure of Lemon Brown,” the author, Walter Dean Myers, used narrative elements to create an interesting story for his readers. At the beginning of “The Treasure of Lemon Brown,” Walter Dean Myers made Greg a depressed character. He was depressed because his dad wouldn’t let him play with the Community Center basketball team due to his poor grades. Greg walked around town depressed, and met a man named Lemon Brown who had gone through good and bad times.
In Monster by Walter Dean Myers, Steve Harmon is a normal 16-year-old except for the fact he is on trial for something he believes he didn’t do. He thinks he’s telling the truth, but can one really know that. Murderer, liar, and monster Steve have been called all these things and now he’s starting to question if he’s guilty or not. At every twist and turn, people are telling the “truth” to save themselves. But the real truth is, the truth is a concept that cannot be proved.
African American men born in the United States in 2001 have a one in three chance of being incarcerated at some point in their lifetime, according to Department of Justice statistics. An even greater number will have a criminal record and face the host of collateral consequences that emanate from a criminal record. As Michelle Alexander wrote, “An extraordinary percentage of black men in the United States are legally barred from voting today, just as they have been throughout most of American history. They are also subject to legalized discrimination in employment, housing, education, public benefits, and jury service, just as their parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents once were.”, as gathered
