Weekly Discussion Post - Week 2

Week 2 Discussion:  Do you think that people are judged as being 'guilty' by the general public even before they have completed a trial in court? What famous cases have you heard of where you think people have assumed the accused has been guilty? Do you think this is fair or unfair?

  1. Yes, i do think people are judged of being guilty by the public before the court trial because some times people believe that a person is guilty before they have there court trial. I have never really heard of a famous cases of people being assumed for being guilty and i do think that assuming things like that is unfair to the person that you are assuming is guilty without even knowing fully that they are guilty.

    1. I agree, there are most definitely people who are judged as being guilty before the general public. Many people are thought by the public to be guilty because of their religion or the way they look. I also do not think that assuming someone is guilty is very fair.

  2. Yes I do think people are judged before going to court by the public because before court people are going to be judged for what you did. Second people have there own worries because other people are going to assume that you are guilty before you go in court trial. I don't think this is fair because a lot of people are going to assume that you are guilty so that doesn't really do that much for you. Mr. Novakovich

  3. Yes I do think that people are getting judged before court because the media makes everyone believe that the person is guilty. Which makes the person discriminated and when ever any one that sees them feel un safe. Mr nova

  4. Yes, i agree because in the book, as soon as the main event took place at the school, people started to think right away that azeem was guilty just because he was arrested. so yes a think this is unfair because people should get a fair chance to explain why they arent guilty. Ms.duff
