Final Argument Paper: The Case of the West Memphis Three In 1994, three teenage males were convicted for the crimes of murder in West Memphis, Arkansas. Jessie MisKelley Jr, Damien Echols, and Jason Baldwin were tried and convicted for the murder of three 8 year-old boys: Steven Branch, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers. Jessie and Jason received life sentences while Damien, the suspected ring-leader, was sentenced to death. In August of 2011, all three men made an Alford Plea and were released from jail as time served. An Alford plea is better known as the “I’m guilty but I didn’t do it” defense. Under the Alford plea, the defendant admits that sufficient evidence exists with which the prosecution could likely convince a judge or jury to find the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. However, the defendant(s) cannot be charged with these crimes again (Double Jeopardy Law). All three are currently free men and trying to integrate back into society. In 2013, we are still in search of answers as to what happened to the three 8 year-old boys and who is responsible for their death. Under the Alford plea, Damien, Jason, and Jessie are considered guilty of these crimes. Under our laws, they are considered ex-cons. The state of Arkansas has declared the murders of the three boys a cold case despite questions that have been raised regarding the possible involvement of two of the stepfathers, John Mark Byers and Terry Hobbs. There are many speculations as to what might have happened if the three men would have chosen to wait for a re-trial. For this paper, present an argument as to what you believe would have been the outcome of such a case. Would the three been found guilty or not guilty? Additionally, this argument will be focused on a specific element of the case. You may choose one of the following: police error/law enforcement mistakes (including false confession), Satanic Panic, or Media Involvement in case. Whichever element you choose to write about will be the sole argument for the paper. After reviewing all of the court testimonies, documents, evidence, and extra accounts that the real jury did not have access to, you will make a decision and support it with evidence as to the guilt or wrongful conviction of these three young men. There are a lot of evidence, statements, etc to dig through for this case. However, as a jury member it is imperative that you look at all that is available to you in order to make a sound judgment. The job of a jury member is to: sort through conflicting claims; weigh all evidence as objectively as possible, without personal biases; and uncover the assumptions behind the messages you are hearing. For the introduction section to your paper (1.5-2 pgs), give an overview of the crimes and how/why these three young men were arrested and charged. Also indicate to your reader what sentences these men received as well as information pertaining to their Alford Plea. You will then foll.

Assignment sub-heading: Sixth Amendment Right to Counsel
TITLE AND CITATION: Nix v. Williams, 467 U.S. 431, 104 S.Ct. 2501 (1984)
TYPE OF ACTION: Review by the U.S. Supreme Court of a lower court ruling that evidence should be suppressed as a result of a violation of the Sixth Amendment right to counsel. The state (Nix) sought to overturn the motion to suppress that was upheld by the U.S. District Court of Appeals.
FACTS OF THE CASE:
On December 24, 1968, ten year old Pamela Powers was kidnapped from an Iowa YMCA and her body was later found in a ditch, which was within an extensive area that was being searched by volunteers and law enforcement. The defendant was observed “carrying a large bundle wrapped in a blanket…two legs in it and they were skinny and white.” Williams’ car, which contained clothing items belonging to the victim, was found the next day approximately 160 miles from the incident. Based on this information, an extensive search was started that extended from Des Moines to Davenport, Iowa.
Law enforcement obtained a warrant for Williams’ arrest, and he subsequently turned himself into the authorities in Davenport. Williams was arraigned and had obtained and spoken with an attorney. Des Moines police detectives agreed to transport Williams and not interview him during the drive between Davenport and Des Moines. During the drive, one of the detectives on the case began to speak to Williams regarding the need to find the child’s body before it snowed so that her parents could give her a proper, “Christian” burial. The detective did not ask Williams any specific questions during this conversation. At that point, Williams provided statements to the detectives that led them to the child’s body.
Williams was then tried in state court and was found guilty of first degree murder. Williams filed a motion to suppress the evidence of the body and all related evidence concerning the body’s location based on illegally obtained testimony. When the conviction was affirmed by the Iowa state Supreme Court, Williams sought relief in the U.S. District Court for the Southern District of Iowa. The U.S. District Court, U.S. Court of Appeals, and the U.S. Supreme Court agreed with Williams and determined that he was denied the right to counsel and his statements, which led to the child’s body, could not be introduced into evidence.
Williams was tried in state court a second time, without the use by the prosecution of the statements he had given to detectives. Prosecutors introduced evidence of the child’s body under the premise.

CHAPTER OBJECTIVES
POLICE INTERROGATIONS AND CONFESSIONS
A confession is perhaps the most compelling evidence that can be pre-
sented in a criminal trial. A confession, even when subsequently retracted,
can infl uence jury verdicts (Kassin & Sukel, 1997). Most jurors view con-
fessions as accurate accounts of a defendant ’ s culpability. Indeed, it is
likely that the majority of confessions are valid, in that the suspect actually
committed a criminal act. However, it is sometimes the case that confes-
sions are false. In these cases, a suspect confesses to a crime he or she did
not actually commit. In this chapter, we consider the factors that can lead
to a false confession.
In order to understand the factors that can contribute to a false confession,
one must distinguish between personal and situational risk factors (Kassin
& Gudjonsson, 2004). Some individuals are more susceptible to respond
to interrogative coercion by being more compliant or more suggestible.
Younger suspects, particularly adolescents, or individuals with mental health
problems may be more vulnerable to interrogation tactics. Intelligence, drug
or alcohol use, and stress are other personal risk factors that may increase
the likelihood of a false confession. In contrast, situational risk factors
involve the particular techniques used to extract the confession, the time of

IntroductIon
By its nature, a constitutional right is also a constitutional defense. After all, a right is
something that may be asserted by person without suffering reprisal from the govern-
ment. Inherently, a right stands as a limit on government. So, when a government inter-
feres with speech, one defense may be the protection of speech itself. A variety of defenses
arise from rights secured by the U.S. Constitution. Most of these rights are found in the
first nine, as well as the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments. You have
already learned a few of these, such as the First Amendment’s protection of expression. In
addition, many rights that are procedural, such as the right to a speedy trial, are discussed
later. A few critical defenses have been chosen for discussion in this chapter. The big dogs
of criminal procedure, the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments, are not examined in
this chapter because they receive considerable attention in the chapters that follow.
Be aware that each state has its own constitution, which may provide greater
protection than the U.S. Constitution. During this discussion you may want to refer
to the U.S. Constitution, which is reprinted as Appendix A of this text.
double Jeopardy
The Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution provides that “no person shall be
subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb.” The principle
of not punishing someone twice for the same act can be found as far back as Black-
stone’s Commentaries in the 1700s.1 The Double Jeopardy Clause applies only to
criminal proceedings.
There are actual.

Wrongful Convictions
Wrongful convictions occur when innocent defendants are found guilty in criminal trials, or
when defendants feel compelled to plead guilty to crimes they did not commit in order to
avoid the death penalty or extremely long prison sentences. The term wrongful conviction can
also refer to cases in which a jury erroneously finds a person with a good defense guilty (e.g.,
self-defense), or where an appellate court reverses a conviction (regardless of the defendant's
factual guilt) obtained in violation of the defendant's constitutional rights. This chapter deals
with the first type of wrongful convictions, or wrong person convictions. Note also that the
verdict of acquittal in American law is “not guilty” rather than “innocent,” meaning that an
acquitted person might not be factually innocent. For the sake of clarity, the term actual or
factual innocence is used to refer to persons who did not commit the crime. Miscarriage of
justice (a legal term in England) is also used to describe wrongful convictions.
A wrongful conviction is a terrible injustice that is magnified when an actually innocent person
spends years in prison or on death row. This has always been recognized by the U.S. legal
system. The rising number of exonerations, however, and growing awareness that such
injustices occur every day in American courts, raises profound doubts about the accuracy and
fairness of the criminal justice system. This understanding is supported by considerable
recent research. This surge in awareness and budding research has motivated a growing
number of innocence projects, which work to exonerate wrongly convicted prisoners, to also
propose justice policy reforms designed to reduce the number of wrongful convictions or to
alleviate their effects. This chapter explains why wrongful conviction has become a prominent
issue, the scope of the problem, its causes, and reform proposals.
The injustice of being convicted and imprisoned for a crime one did not commit is intuitively
apparent. Research and anecdotal evidence shows that a high proportion of wrongfully
convicted prisoners suffer severe psychological consequences, including posttraumatic stress
disorder and anxiety disorders, which is not typical among ...

IntroductIon
By its nature, a constitutional right is also a constitutional defense. After all, a right is
something that may be asserted by person without suffering reprisal from the govern-
ment. Inherently, a right stands as a limit on government. So, when a government inter-
feres with speech, one defense may be the protection of speech itself. A variety of defenses
arise from rights secured by the U.S. Constitution. Most of these rights are found in the
first nine, as well as the Thirteenth, Fourteenth, and Fifteenth Amendments. You have
already learned a few of these, such as the First Amendment’s protection of expression. In
addition, many rights that are procedural, such as the right to a speedy trial, are discussed
later. A few critical defenses have been chosen for discussion in this chapter. The big dogs
of criminal procedure, the Fourth, Fifth, and Sixth Amendments, are not examined in
this chapter because they receive considerable attention in the chapters that follow.
Be aware that each state has its own constitution, which may provide greater
protection than the U.S. Constitution. During this discussion you may want to refer
to the U.S. Constitution, which is reprinted as Appendix A of this text.
double Jeopardy
The Fifth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution provides that “no person shall be
subject for the same offense to be twice put in jeopardy of life or limb.” The principle
of not punishing someone twice for the same act can be found as far back as Black-
stone’s Commentaries in the 1700s.1 The Double Jeopardy Clause applies only to
criminal proceedings.
There are actual.

Wrongful Convictions
Wrongful convictions occur when innocent defendants are found guilty in criminal trials, or
when defendants feel compelled to plead guilty to crimes they did not commit in order to
avoid the death penalty or extremely long prison sentences. The term wrongful conviction can
also refer to cases in which a jury erroneously finds a person with a good defense guilty (e.g.,
self-defense), or where an appellate court reverses a conviction (regardless of the defendant's
factual guilt) obtained in violation of the defendant's constitutional rights. This chapter deals
with the first type of wrongful convictions, or wrong person convictions. Note also that the
verdict of acquittal in American law is “not guilty” rather than “innocent,” meaning that an
acquitted person might not be factually innocent. For the sake of clarity, the term actual or
factual innocence is used to refer to persons who did not commit the crime. Miscarriage of
justice (a legal term in England) is also used to describe wrongful convictions.
A wrongful conviction is a terrible injustice that is magnified when an actually innocent person
spends years in prison or on death row. This has always been recognized by the U.S. legal
system. The rising number of exonerations, however, and growing awareness that such
injustices occur every day in American courts, raises profound doubts about the accuracy and
fairness of the criminal justice system. This understanding is supported by considerable
recent research. This surge in awareness and budding research has motivated a growing
number of innocence projects, which work to exonerate wrongly convicted prisoners, to also
propose justice policy reforms designed to reduce the number of wrongful convictions or to
alleviate their effects. This chapter explains why wrongful conviction has become a prominent
issue, the scope of the problem, its causes, and reform proposals.
The injustice of being convicted and imprisoned for a crime one did not commit is intuitively
apparent. Research and anecdotal evidence shows that a high proportion of wrongfully
convicted prisoners suffer severe psychological consequences, including posttraumatic stress
disorder and anxiety disorders, which is not typical among ...

Juvenile Justice and Death Penalty
Introduction
Juvenile offenders and the death penalty have long been a controversial topic in the U.S. criminal justice system. The Juvenile death penalty once legal and now illegal across all 50 states has sent ripples through the criminal justice system. The follow paper briefly discusses the U.S. Supreme case behind the juvenile death penalty ban, the U.S. Supreme Court’s reasoning behind its decision that was heavily influenced by scientific research, future possible implications of the U.S. Supreme Court’s decision, and lastly a Biblical perspective on juveniles and the death penalty.
Juvenile Justice and the Death Penalty
According to Cox, Allen, Hanser, and Conrad (2018), in March 2005 in the case of
Roper v. Simmons
, the Unites States Supreme Court reversed a 1989 ruling that allowed the death penalty and therefore executions of juvenile offenders, effectively outlawing and halting exactions nationwide. The
Roper v. Simmons
case revolved around 17-year-old Christopher Simmons. Christopher talked to his friends on more than once occasion about wanting to murder someone (Cox et al., 2018). Christopher also described to his friends how he planned to commit this crime that included committing a burglary, tying up the victim, and push the victim off a bridge (Cox et al., 2018).
Christopher would go on to carry out his specific plan with a friend. Christopher and his friend broke into the home of Shirley Crook, tied her up, blind folded her, and proceeded to take her to a nearby park where they continued to tie his hands and feet with electrical wire and cover her face with duct tape (Cox et al., 2018). Christopher and his friend then took Shirley to a nearby river and threw her in and as a result Shirley drowned. Christopher and his friend bragged about what they had done and were soon taken into custody. Christopher admitted to his part of the murder and showed no remorse during trial (Cox et al., 2018). Christopher was then convicted and sentenced to death, which later the Supreme Court reversed stating that execution should only be limited to those offenders whose culpability makes them the most deserving of such sentence. The Supreme Court cited that scientific developments have found that juveniles have underdeveloped sense of responsibility (Cox et al., 2018).

Final Paper
To complete this assignment, read through the scenario below and address the specific questions and issues indicated. Review the "Introduction to the Miller Family" document for specific information on each member of the family.
Grandmother Ella has been dealing with cancer for years now and has tried alternative remedies and juicing. She went into remission for some time, but now the cancer has returned and she is in the hospital. Her husband, of American Indian descent, has his ideas about what needs to be done as Ella comes to the end of her life. Ella has her preferences, though she is now so weak that she has given up in many ways. The family members are each experiencing their own fears and are grieving as they face the loss that will occur as Ella’s life comes to a close. Ella prefers to die at home and has felt stressed by the discord and discomfort of family members since being hospitalized.
You are the social worker for this case. You meet this family in the hospital setting as they are considering whether the patient will remain there for her final days or whether hospice and palliative care will be provided for her in her home.
For this assignment, you will:
Synthesize the current research that is relevant to this scenario.
Discuss the cultural or traditional issues that could arise at this time. Consider how the integration of alternative and complementary medicine and beliefs, mainstream medical practices, and cultural/traditional rituals and practices might create issues and what they might include.
Describe how the family might react to the following possible scenarios:
Ella wishes to stick with alternative and complementary practices.
Ella is coerced into following mainstream medical advice.
Ella’s husband insists that, as father and husband, his family traditions should be adhered to.
Examine the biological basis for care and describe how the choices for care might affect the other family members with respect to their individual problems, if at all.
Son Sam, the alcoholic
Daughter Lila, with diabetes
Grandson Josh, starting to have drug problems
Granddaughter Lucy, bipolar with more entrenched drug problems
Daughter-in-law, Sarah’s stress related to her family’s medical issues (nephew with leukemia, brother with HIV, and her father’s perspective that they are all “crazy!”)
Discuss the micro, mezzo, and macro influences affecting both the patient and the diverse family members in this scenario as impacted by Ella’s medical condition and prognosis.
What are the pertinent and likely family (micro) conflicts and differences, and concerns that could be encountered?
How is the neighborhood and extended family (mezzo) reacting to the situation?
If she returns home, what considerations need to be taken into account as part of her discharge plan? Using your local area, research and present the needed or preferred community resources (macro) that would be available to them. Critique the ability of these communi.

Final Paper To complete this assignment, read through the scenario.docx
Final Paper
To complete this assignment, read through the scenario below and address the specific questions and issues indicated. Review the "Introduction to the Miller Family" document for specific information on each member of the family.
Grandmother Ella has been dealing with cancer for years now and has tried alternative remedies and juicing. She went into remission for some time, but now the cancer has returned and she is in the hospital. Her husband, of American Indian descent, has his ideas about what needs to be done as Ella comes to the end of her life. Ella has her preferences, though she is now so weak that she has given up in many ways. The family members are each experiencing their own fears and are grieving as they face the loss that will occur as Ella’s life comes to a close. Ella prefers to die at home and has felt stressed by the discord and discomfort of family members since being hospitalized.
You are the social worker for this case. You meet this family in the hospital setting as they are considering whether the patient will remain there for her final days or whether hospice and palliative care will be provided for her in her home.
For this assignment, you will:
Synthesize the current research that is relevant to this scenario.
Discuss the cultural or traditional issues that could arise at this time. Consider how the integration of alternative and complementary medicine and beliefs, mainstream medical practices, and cultural/traditional rituals and practices might create issues and what they might include.
Describe how the family might react to the following possible scenarios:
Ella wishes to stick with alternative and complementary practices.
Ella is coerced into following mainstream medical advice.
Ella’s husband insists that, as father and husband, his family traditions should be adhered to.
Examine the biological basis for care and describe how the choices for care might affect the other family members with respect to their individual problems, if at all.
Son Sam, the alcoholic
Daughter Lila, with diabetes
Grandson Josh, starting to have drug problems
Granddaughter Lucy, bipolar with more entrenched drug problems
Daughter-in-law, Sarah’s stress related to her family’s medical issues (nephew with leukemia, brother with HIV, and her father’s perspective that they are all “crazy!”)
Discuss the micro, mezzo, and macro influences affecting both the patient and the diverse family members in this scenario as impacted by Ella’s medical condition and prognosis.
What are the pertinent and likely family (micro) conflicts and differences, and concerns that could be encountered?
How is the neighborhood and extended family (mezzo) reacting to the situation?
If she returns home, what considerations need to be taken into account as part of her discharge plan? Using your local area, research and present the needed or preferred community resources (macro) that would be available to them. Critique the ability of these communi.

four
pieces of literature
by different writers
(poets, playwrights, fiction writers--
no essays, speeches, or non-fiction prose
) from this time period.

he work of four writers;
you may include more than one work by each of the four writers.
The paper should be in essay form with an introduction, body paragraphs, and a conclusion rather than a collection of reading responses. Please do not use sub-headings.
You
must
use quotations from the reading selections as support for your general ideas.
You should not use the same works that you used in your reading responses for Volume E or the novel or short story that you wrote about in your research paper.
Please do not choose long reading selections for this paper.
If you have questions or need suggestions, please let me know.
The final should show me that you have read selections from various parts of Volume E.
Here are some possible ways to group the reading selections (choose
one
):
Reading selections that show the increasing diversity in America literature during this time period

Reading selections that reveal something about relationships between parents and children (especially adults looking back on their relationships with their parents)
Reading selections that reveal something about relationships between men and women
Reading selections that reveal the effects of historical events on individuals (including events that occurred before this time period) (Note: If you are using the 7th edition, you may use
one
poem or story from the September 11 section, but not all. I want you to find poems or stories that relate to a variety of historical events.)

Jimmy is the CEO of News Corp. His son, Johnny, runs Television Inc. One day Jimmy suggests that Johnny sell Television Inc. to News Corp.

The board of directors diligently examines the transaction, but due to clever forgeries, the board does not discover the radical inflation of the corporation.

FederalismThe system of federalism was instituted with the writing.docx
Federalism
The system of federalism was instituted with the writing and authorization of the Constitution in 1787. In dividing power between states and the national government, federalism has undergone challenges to the placement of power. Should power reside primarily in national or in state government? The Civil War was the most dramatic challenge to the placement of power. Southern states argued, under the leadership of John C. Calhoun, that states’ power superseded national power, while northern states, under the leadership of President Abraham Lincoln, stressed the need for union under the leadership and direction of the national government.
In the more than two hundred years since the Constitution’s adoption, there have been many changes to the meaning of federalism, with power shifting between state and national governments. In the twentieth century, the shifts of power became largely associated with the national government’s ability to provide increased funding sources. With more funding available, the national government has expanded its impact on all areas of state governments. This increased power has had many advocates and many detractors, each with strong justifications.
Research federalism using your textbook, the Argosy University online library resources, and the Internet. Write a paper on federalism. Structure your paper as follows:
Define federalism.
Explain three advantages of federalism.
Explain three disadvantages of federalism.
Identify and describe at least two ways in which American federalism has changed since the ratification of the Constitution.
Discuss one advantage or disadvantage of federalism most relevant to you.
Describe the relationship between contemporary politics and trends in the size and power of the federal government.

2024.06.01 Introducing a competency framework for languag learning materials ...
http://sandymillin.wordpress.com/iateflwebinar2024
Published classroom materials form the basis of syllabuses, drive teacher professional development, and have a potentially huge influence on learners, teachers and education systems. All teachers also create their own materials, whether a few sentences on a blackboard, a highly-structured fully-realised online course, or anything in between. Despite this, the knowledge and skills needed to create effective language learning materials are rarely part of teacher training, and are mostly learnt by trial and error.
Knowledge and skills frameworks, generally called competency frameworks, for ELT teachers, trainers and managers have existed for a few years now. However, until I created one for my MA dissertation, there wasn’t one drawing together what we need to know and do to be able to effectively produce language learning materials.
This webinar will introduce you to my framework, highlighting the key competencies I identified from my research. It will also show how anybody involved in language teaching (any language, not just English!), teacher training, managing schools or developing language learning materials can benefit from using the framework.

Final Argument Paper The Case of the West Memphis ThreeIn 1994,.docx
- 1. Final Argument Paper: The Case of the West Memphis Three In 1994, three teenage males were convicted for the crimes of murder in West Memphis, Arkansas. Jessie MisKelley Jr, Damien Echols, and Jason Baldwin were tried and convicted for the murder of three 8 year-old boys: Steven Branch, Michael Moore, and Christopher Byers. Jessie and Jason received life sentences while Damien, the suspected ring-leader, was sentenced to death. In August of 2011, all three men made an Alford Plea and were released from jail as time served. An Alford plea is better known as the “I’m guilty but I didn’t do it” defense. Under the Alford plea, the defendant admits that sufficient evidence exists with which the prosecution could likely convince a judge or jury to find the defendant guilty beyond a reasonable doubt. However, the defendant(s) cannot be charged with these crimes again (Double Jeopardy Law). All three are currently free men and trying to integrate back into society. In 2013, we are still in search of answers as to what happened to the three 8 year-old boys and who is responsible for their death. Under the Alford plea, Damien, Jason, and Jessie are considered guilty of these crimes. Under our laws, they are considered ex-cons. The state of Arkansas has declared the murders of the three boys a cold case despite questions that have been raised regarding the possible involvement of two of the stepfathers, John Mark Byers and Terry Hobbs. There are many speculations as to what might have happened if the three men would have chosen to wait for a re-trial. For this paper, present an argument as to what you believe would have been the outcome of such a case. Would the three been found guilty or not guilty? Additionally, this argument will be focused on a specific
- 2. element of the case. You may choose one of the following: police error/law enforcement mistakes (including false confession), Satanic Panic, or Media Involvement in case. Whichever element you choose to write about will be the sole argument for the paper. After reviewing all of the court testimonies, documents, evidence, and extra accounts that the real jury did not have access to, you will make a decision and support it with evidence as to the guilt or wrongful conviction of these three young men. There are a lot of evidence, statements, etc to dig through for this case. However, as a jury member it is imperative that you look at all that is available to you in order to make a sound judgment. The job of a jury member is to: sort through conflicting claims; weigh all evidence as objectively as possible, without personal biases; and uncover the assumptions behind the messages you are hearing. For the introduction section to your paper (1.5-2 pgs), give an overview of the crimes and how/why these three young men were arrested and charged. Also indicate to your reader what sentences these men received as well as information pertaining to their Alford Plea. You will then follow with a claim about how you will argue the paper (not guilty because of false confessions, not guilty because of multiple police errors, etc). Be sure to back up your arguments with quotes from the trial or other resources. Because this argument is so specific, your reasons and evidence will need to be very clear and logical. Requirements: Paper length : 6-8 pages and a works cited page (page 7, 8, or 9) Sources
- 3. : Everyone will cite the film from class and must use at least 2 other sources. There have been two books written on the case, Devil’s Knot by Leveritt and Life After Death by Echols. Additionally, there are multitudes of sources through newspapers, magazines, and journals. You may also use scholarly sources related to aspects of your argument: forensic studies, DNA, police procedure, false confessions, etc. You may also use any documentaries that have been made about the case: West of Memphis , etc. A website that will be extremely helpful to you is www.wm3.org . Absolutely NO Wikipedia or blog postings permitted. Quotes : No more than 1 block quote will be permitted in this paper. Argumentative Paragraph: · S tatement. Topic sentence states what you will argue in the paragraph. · E xample. Provide examples from a text or your own life to help support the statement. · E
- 4. x planation. Explain how the examples support the statement. · I mplications. Discuss the ways the point in this paragraph supports the argument you present in your thesis. I have already written the introduction part. just remember my claim is they are not guilty because the media involvement. and then you have to have several arguments.
