O.J. Simpson is an ex NFL player who was put on trial for the murder of his ex-wife Nicole Brown and Ronald Goldman. O.J.’s trial is one of the most controversial and most popular cases to this day. His wife was brutally killed and no one got punished for it. O.J. received a not guilty verdict and was let free. I believe that O.J. Simpson’s verdict should have been guilty because of the evidence on the scene‚ because of his book that was later published‚ and because of his 3 or 4 changes in alibi

The Nuremberg Trials More than half a century has passed since the end of World War Two and to this day it is still difficult to fully understand the severity of what was by far the most destructive war in human history. More than sixty million people were killed during World War Two and more than half of those were innocent town’s people. Among the dead were over six million Jews‚ which was two thirds of the total living race in Europe at the time. Beyond these general statistics were thousands

viewpoints as to who was the real driving force behind Macbeth and his ascent to power. There is the possibility of outside forces‚ including Lady Macbeth and the witches but also he could be victim to inner desires and ambitions which is the human condition which he could not control. The contrasting viewpoint is that Macbeth is the villain and that he chose to kill Duncan without much persuasion from any outer forces. It was his choice and he made it in a clear mind with the goal of becoming King

Trial by Media The justification system is quickly being scorched in America by how the media manages all lurid cases. People are getting prejudged by the press and public before any legal action has taken place. I believe it is completely amiss for the media to interpret whether a person is guilty or innocent‚ before or even after a verdict has been established in a court of law. Take O.J. Simpson’s case for instance. Simpson was accused of murdering his ex-wife‚ Nicole Brown Simpson. This

my view‚ Lady Macbeth is far worse than Macbeth. Although they both think of murdering King Duncan as soon as they hear the witches’ prophecies‚ Macbeth thinks more about what he may or may not do‚ whereas Lady Macbeth immediately appeals to evil spirits to give her the strength to kill Duncan. When Macbeth first hears the prophecies‚ and when the first 2/3 of it comes true‚ he does think of killing the king‚ but also‚ towards the end of Act 1‚ Scene 3‚ he thinks that perhaps he doesn’t need to
