1A
Being prejudice got in the way throughout the play. Some jurors were close minded and were unable to see the truth. The jurors were unable to look past the boys past and assumed he killed his dad due to his criminal background. If the jurors had continued to suppress the current facts, they would have put an innocent man in jail.

Good post. Some jurors were very close minded in this play and didn't open up to see the other side of rhea argument and the facts that could decide the trial. Luckily though they did finally open up their minds to see the other side of the argument and reach the correct verdict.
ReplyDeleteI think that if juror number eight would have not looked at the facts and voted guilty, then many jurors would have gotten away with being prejudice in this case. You can't blame the jurors for being prejudice, because I know many people in my class who were also prejudice in this situation, not only on the race of the defendant but many other things in the trial. It's very hard to not be prejudice when we grow up in a world with so much of it going on around us, but even though its hard it still affects many things when we are prejudice towards something. So yes they would have definantly put an innocent man in jail if it wasn't for juror three who was not prejudice.
