While reading the article, “Andrew and Hannah”, by Pamela Colloff, the one thing I was kept thinking was that all this evidence was very circumstantial. Every piece of evidence they were holding against hannah made no sense, and they could not make scario that fit Hannah’s personality.

These individuals’ genders and verdicts were measured using a chi-square for analysis.…

What if you were on trial for first degree murder? In the movie 12 Angry Men by Reginald Rose, a young eighteen year old male was on trial for supposedly murdering his own father.
