    Pruckmayr Assignment The case of Leo Wright and the murder of Bettina Pruckmayr was extremely tragic. There were so many mistakes made, from his time in the Lorton facility, to the lack of communication and time spent on his case, his arrests and his time on parole. The first red flag that I saw and felt the most frustrated about, was not only Wright’s lack of ability to show up for his monthly meetings, but the fact that his own parole officer seemed unable to attend many of these meetings as well. The lack of communication and time spent with Wright clearly kept Wright from seeing his drug addiction was back in full swing.…

    In the Communist Manifesto, Karl Marx states, “The bourgeoisie has torn away from the family its sentimental veil, and has reduced the family relation to a mere money relation.” In other words, one can say love has been stripped away from intimate relationships, and has been turned into business matters only. One can find themselves under the impression that society has impacted their lives so much that they have forgotten how to live their own everyday life. Based off of evidence from novels such as The Lover’s Dictionary by David Levithan, This is How You Lose Her by Junot Díaz, and Another Bullshit Night in Suck City by Nick Flynn, this quote can be disagreed upon to believe that love is in existence in relationships and society does not…
