Week 3 prompt:  What do you think of the competency hearing? After hearing what  happened in the other trial (the Bean case) did it change your feelings  about how the hearing went?
I am sad i couldn't put the book down so I finished early. I have been in the courts before with my brother there is nothing fair about a trial. The police in this book were portrayed exactly as they are. They don't care about anyone or anything. Once they think they have there suspect they stop looking. They treat the family member as if they are the criminals to. It was so hard for me to read these parts it brought back some bad memories. I was really glad they let Jacob go home with his mom I can't imagine what more would have happened to him if he had to stay in jail.
I am really glad I join Kim's book club because I would have never picked this book to read. Thank you Kim!

ReplyDeletePolice do treat the family like criminals, totally agree.
