Good afternoon Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury. Today I will prove that George MIlton is not guilty of first degree murder. Throughout the story George is always taking care of Lennie from beginning to end. They leave a place called Weed for a problem they had, they camp in the brush once in there journey to find another place to find work. They have reached a place to work and they both start their job right away. Lennie is like a son to George, a family member, In no circumstance would George ever kill Lennie to get rid of him or to make his life easier.

Would you do nothing and just let some strangers you barely met kill your friend and make him suffer. Or would you shoot him where he won't suffer just so the other employees won't hurt him? I know it would be hard for you but In my opinion it would be the right thing to do. Based on my evidence I think that George did not kill Lennie w/ First Degree Murder but w/
