Predicament of Climbers Simpson and Yates in Touching the Void

After close review and careful analysis of the case of Andrea Yates and the circumstances which led to the drowning death and murder of her five children, I first would like to state my personal opinion on the conclusion of the case which was the majority consensus at the time of her trial and sentencing. She was guilty of a horrible murder and although certainly had mental problems, which is apparent by her actions that most completely rational thinking human being and mother would be incapable of committing, and expertly

The pipel and the two other men were hung. The two adults died instantly but the pipel was too light and stayed alive for a half an hour.

Have you ever had to make an example of someone through punishment? In the book “Billy Budd the Sailor” Captain Vere did just that. Everyone agrees that Captain Vere faced a potential mutiny, but some people believe that he should have executed Billy Bud to prevent a mutiny while others think he should not have executed Billy Bud. Billy Budd should have been executed for three reasons. He killed Claggart, his death would prevent a mutiny, and it was the captain’s duty.

The first reason Tom should not have been declared guilty is that his story had no flaws. Tom’s left arm had been crippled since his childhood, thus overruling Tom’s ability to commit such a crime.

He got saved from starving and getting hit with the leather strap. He used this rule for survival because he was in the car with “Lefty” Lewis he thought that he had a gun in the suitcase and he thought of running away but he talked himself out of it.

Due to Mr. and Mrs. Simpson’s previous police record of domestic violence calls, we were in desperate need to talk to Mr. Simpson. We called Mr. Simpson shortly after he arrived at his hotel in Chicago. When we informed him of the murder of his wife, Simpson acted surprisingly calm and collected. He never asked how, where, or if there are any suspects. During his interrogation, when we asked about a cut on his hand, he claimed the cut was from golfing and that he reopened it when he smashed some glass in his hotel room (Linder). He boarded the first plane back to Los Angeles, that’s when he found us at his home conducting a full scale investigation. After we obtained enough evidence, we released a warrant for the arrest of Orenthal James Simpson.

The local and international media began covering the story. And this made Whisnant happy for his dream of becoming a movie was on his way. In the long run, they discovered that Wood was a full bloom addict to covered up the pain and frustration of the tragedy, while Whisnant had an difficult experience when he was a child. In the end, they appeared on the show of Judge Mathis to resolved the case, and to decide for the fate of amputated leg. He came up with the decision that John Wood got the leg but in return he should pay Whisnant for the

As because of the coroner’s inaccurate judgement, it had worsened Kabuo situation in the trail. Now that all the evidences had turned against Kabuo, it has made others to focus mainly on Kabuo, and think that he is behind of all this. Later on, abroad Kabuo’s ship Art Moran n the mooring rope and fishing gaff with the victim’s blood on it. With all those evidences it would have proven Kabuo to be the murderer, but new evidences came into existences to overturn the entire situation and twisted the case as of being an accident rather than a first degree murder case. If it wasn’t for prejudice this trail would never has gone so far or would never had happened in the first place.

Some of O.J.’s supporters also is innocent contend that O.J was not in good enough physical condition to commit two murders. Due to injuries he suffered during his NFL career, O.J had developed symptoms of arthritis. The defense team was stated that on the night of the murders, Simpson’s arthritis was so severe that he could not even deal cards at the Riviera Country Club hours before (Bugliosi 302).

In life, we don’t think about the importance of conversing. But without it, think about how hard it would be to communicate to each other. In the story Trapped by Michael Northrop, the author uses dialogue to set up the problem. Without the characters communicating to each other, really there would be no story. I mean, yes a story doesn’t have to have dialogue, but it won’t keep moving. We won’t hear from other characters at all. And for setting up the problem in Trapped the characters communicate a lot about what to do, since there’s seven teenages with no adults trapped in a school. They speak a lot to each other to address the problem. In Trapped by Michael Northrop, the author uses description, actions, and dialogue to set up the problem.

However, a rational appeal would be that by law Christopher Barber should be punished for what he did to his son. Even though she did not want to hurt him intentionally, it still caused him his life. It changed the life of those around him. Christopher Barber also made his life change in a big way since on his record it will say that he was charged with the death of his own son. It was wrong for Christopher Barber to treat his son the way he did.

Barry, a major character in Saturday Climbing, a short story by W.D Valgardson, portrays an exemplary father as he tries to change himself in order to conceive his daughter from overprotection, and cease her control by letting her go and understanding her state of mind. For example, at the beginning of the novel Barry conveys overprotection as he says "In all other things, he had been trying to keep her from rushing headlong into taking on too much responsibility at once"(Pg.55). He rises to the conclusion that in the end his ideal intention was to keep Moira from running on ahead and take time to step into responsibilities efficiently. Slowly, he comes to realize that doing so he was causing her to seclude herself from him and that his objective caused him to become very controlling and possessive. Throughout the

Secondly, no justice had been done to Bob Ewell and he got away with a false accusation and Bob basically for all practical purposes killed Tom Robinson. Overall what Arthur Radley had done was justifiable and far fairer than any court would be to Mr. Tom Robinson. (Fassett)

Members of the climbing community felt that Yates should not have cut the rope and that he should have held on for longer to give Simpson every chance to work out a solution to his predicament. However there is evidence that Yates was justified in his actions. The evidence against the argument is that if he hadn’t cut the rope then they both would have died as there was nothing Simpson could have done, which he also points out in the movie. There was also no way of contact between the two. And the fact that Simpson actually says to Yates that he would of done the same thing and he was justified for his actions as a human-being for survival.

From what the police found in the vehicle, I assume that Simpson was on his way to the airport in an attempt to flee the country. The passport and cash is an obvious giveaway of this, as he would need the former to make a flight and the latter for use at his destination. The fake mustache and beard could help him escape the country unnoticed and also disguise himself once he has reached his intended hiding place. The gun would be used in case of a confrontation with the police.
