Descriptive Essay About Your Cousin

Decent Essays
I see a strange guy out of the corner of my eye slowly walking up to me. He’s about 5’10” and kind of stocky. His black suit matches his jet black hair and mustache. Suddenly, I feel a tap on my shoulder. “Hi, I need to ask you some questions about your cousin, Andrew,” says the strange man. He flashes his badge at me. “I’m Detective Johnson with the Racine County Police,” he says. I just look at him in shock. After a few seconds, I nod and agree to go with him to the police station to answer questions. Andrew was a good guy and rarely had run-ins with the law, except for the occasional speeding ticket. When he turned 21, Andrew started smoking weed very heavily. From the minute he woke up to the minute he went to sleep, Andrew would smoke …show more content…

We’ve seen you driving around with him before. Do you go with him when he goes to pick up his drugs?” I just sat there blankly. I had no idea what I was supposed to say. Yes, I would go with him, but how could I turn on my own cousin? “Yes, I’ve gone with him,” I said. “You realize you can be charged for that?” he asked. “Yes. I’ve never helped him sell though. I just like going on drives with him,” I stated. “You go on drives to pick up drugs that he sells to Racine and corrupts the society,” he said hastily. “I can’t control what he does, sir,” I said. “Well, tonight Andrew is going to be visited by an informant. If all goes as planned, we will be going to his house tomorrow to arrest and charge him,” he blatantly stated. I couldn’t believe my ears. “You can’t do that!!” I exclaimed. “Yes, we can and we will. If you make any contact with Andrew tonight and tell him of what we are planning to do, you will also be arrested for aiding and abetting,” Detective Johnson informed. “Okay,” I said as I started crying, “Can I leave now?” “Yes, you’re free to go,” Detective Johnson said as he

    So, I went to bed dreaming about the raccoon spy, but early in the morning, I was woken up by the chief screaming into my walkie-talkie, “Some citizens has called again about hearing grunts and gunshots in the warehouses across the same street, Rain Blvd., and for you Detective Williams, you better under arrest the raccoon spy, or you’ll be fired for the DPD!” So, this one sentence forced me to change my whole way of thinking for my job, and this is the only field that I’m great at. While I was running, I noticed that I was slowing down, and I was fine with that, but time, somehow, was going faster, so I had to decide to arrest the man who could help us, or let it be, and just wait to see what happens. Unluckily, I had to keep on running to my car, because right now, I am barely making enough money to feed two mouths in a home. I drove as fast as I can to get there to finish arresting him, and getting it over with.…

    My Cousin Vinny Essay

    Growing up, I have seen My Cousin Vinny on a few different occasions. This time, watching the film while learning about business law gave me a new perspective on the film and its implications on the American legal system. One of the main concepts that stuck out to me was that Vinny was able to transform from a seemingly unsuccessful law school graduate into a case-winning lawyer. At the beginning of the film, I, much like the characters in the film, doubted Vinny’s abilities to represent Bill and Stan. As the film progressed and I was able to see Vinny gain confidence, composure, and analytical skills, I realized that everything in life takes practice, including law.…

    In the book, “On the Run: Fugitive Life in an American City” written by Alice Goffman, social deviance, discrimination against race/social class and poverty are illustrated during Goffman’s six-year research in a deprived neighborhood in Philadelphia. Goffman highlights that “the sheer scope of policing and imprisonment in poor Black neighborhoods is transforming community life in ways that are deep and enduring, not only for the young men who are their targets but for their family members, partners, and neighbors” (Goffman). Goffman’s research focuses on a side of the story that society is not accustomed to witnessing which makes her book intriguing and devastating to read. In chapter three of Goffman’s book, “On the Run: Fugitive Life in…
