Personal Narrative: Jealousy
Hello Professor, I apologize for the perplexity of my explanation, however, in correcting my mistake, the prosecutor in this case tried using jealousy as an explanation as to why the mother murdered the nanny. The prosecutor built it case off why the murder was committed, stating the nanny did everything a mother should do for her children for the children she looked after in the home and the children were close to the nanny, suggesting the mother was jealous of the nanny and that’s why she murdered

    Judge and jury, I beg thee to charge Ms. Maloney with the murder of Patrick Maloney. Why would the perfectly stable Mary Maloney randomly decide to kill her husband? What would cause a perfectly sane woman to do such a heinous crime? As you are aware, Patrick Maloney was a well-respected member of the police force. To all who knew him he was a good man. He never had any enemies, and was very committed to his job. So how did this good man end up dead? Supposedly, Mr. Maloney was alleged of having an affair. However, Mr. Maloney is no longer around to testify to that fact. If Ms. Maloney had heard of this alleged affair, maybe that drove her to murder him. There is sufficient evidence showing that Ms. Maloney was the murderess. Number one, there…

    Casey Anthony Case Study

    As most if not all of the collected evidence pointed towards Casey as the perpetrator of this crime. Firstly, Casey had never desired to become a mother and had constantly invested her energy in live’s pleasures and leisure, rather than taking care of her child. She as well is known as being a pathological liar, and she presented numerous false claims in court, so her statements in court should not be trusted, as they could be falsified. As a mother in court, she also appeared very grim, and did not seem emotionally moved by the discovery of her daughter dead. The greatest piece of evidence was the smell of a dead body from her truck, and her constant efforts to divert blame onto others. All these actions committed by Casey would only be committed by someone who is guilty and afraid of having the truth of their crimes…

    The famed Medici family of Florence produced 4 Popes, 3 queen regents of France, and engaged in countless acts of assassination and subterfuge. This was representative of the Italian society where Baldassare Castiglione wrote his masterwork, The Book of the Courtier. Italian politics and culture was shaped by the fact that Italy consisted of many autonomous city states that each had their own royal courts, standing armies, cultures, and rulers. This divisiveness in politics helped to foster an extremely stratified society in regards to class and gender. This social stratification causes Castiglione’s definition of the perfect courtier to differ immensely from his definition of the perfect Court woman, and it causes the characteristics of his…

    Mary Maloney was a loving wife to her husband. When her husband had told her he was leaving her she reacted by killing him. For these actions, Mary should be charged with second-degree murder of Patrick Maloney because she had not previously planned to murder him and it was an impulsive action. Mary loved her husband very much. She probably wouldn’t even lay a feather on him. But it all changed after her husband had told her that he was going to leave her. “The violence of the crash, the noise, the small table overturning, helped bring her out of shock ”(13). Mary clearly was in shock when she had killed her husband. Her being shocked suggested that she was surprised at her actions and had not planned on killing him. After Patrick had told…

    What do you see when you look in the mirror? Are you pleased, or do you immediately come up with an endless list of insecurities? As a child one of my favorite memories was laying around the house with my older sister on rainy days. We would leave the windows open so we could hear the rain coming down on the tin roof over our patio, while watching reruns of our favorite tv show “America's Next Top Model”. I always thought that these women were gorgeous and I would catch myself constantly comparing their looks to my own. I wanted to be just like them until I realized the unrealistic expectations that they had to live up to. A sizeable butt and breasts, but not too large; they have got to be proportional. A skinny waist, impeccable hair, blemish free face although even with clear skin you are expected to cake on makeup because no one is actually pretty without mile long eyelashes, the perfect smoky eye, and exemplary contouring. Society has idolized these things as “beautiful” and shamed the girls that do not meet these standards; however, society should be making everyone feel confident in their bodies. Girls need to know that it is okay not to have an “hourglass figure” so they don’t…

    My mother, sister, and I were driving down Highway 124 on a hot July day when my mom screamed and slammed on the breaks. Fear rushed through our bodies. Outside the car window, a short young African American man was launched into the air. As he came down, a loud boom sounded as his body helplessly rolled off the hood of the faint green Toyota Corolla in front of us. The man lay motionless in the road while we waited for what seemed like hours for the driver to exit the car. His red shirt and gym shorts were ripped. The driver of the opposing car threw the vehicle in reverse in a spasmodic action in an attempt to end the man’s life. The injured man made an effort to crawl onto the Wendy’s sidewalk, forcing his body up on the curb to evade the car. The driver drove up onto the curb and blew its tire, just barely missing the wounded man. Realizing the driver would stop at nothing, my mother drove her white suburban in front of the car, blocking the violent perpetrator from doing any further damage.…
