My Opinion: Capital Punishment

I don't think that there should be a death penalty for every crime but if someone does a really bad crime like murder someone or rape someone that there should be the death penalty. Most of the crimes don't need the death penalty they could just get like the maximum sentence to prison and some of the crimes should get what they already have.

he's guilty

I think that Steve is guilty in the book Monster because when they're talking about the robbery he tries to tell himself that he is innocent. When I watch some criminal shows the guilty person always tries to tell themselves that they're innocent. When he was in the police car he tried making his thoughts a blank screen. That means to me that he is trying to make himself forget about what happened at the store that night of the robbery

21 years 3 months

If I was in jail for 21 years 3 months I would be 35 and 9 months old. If I got out and I was looking for a job I highly doubt that I could get a really good job. Also what I would miss is getting married and having kids. Another thing that I might miss is like if one of my family members died I wouldn't be able to get to the funeral because I would be locked up. The prison won't let you go to any funeral or anything like that.

it learned to stand out
long live the tree that blended in with everything when no one else dared
