Why don’t you come and find out? the cold, dark abyss below him seemed to whisper, its seductive voice cold and impersonal. The railings gleamed like burnished gold in the last slanting rays of the westering sun; the metal surface cool and smooth to the touch. As daylight faded to black, the street below became an abode of deepening blue shadows interspersed by streetlights…

only come, if the government was overhauled, African Americans got civil rights, and poverty was to end. When John F. Kennedy became president, he listened to the people’s demands. The Americans believed that the Old Left was problematic so they came up with the New Left. The New left believed that the government needed to do more than reform, the government ad to reorganize government institutions, change how the government provided for the needs of the Americans, and play a more active role in…

However, sometimes it is obvious who committed the crime, yet they are not punished. It is clear that Dr. Sam Sheppard murdered his wife, Marilyn Sheppard, because of details included in the crime scene and Sam’s story, missing information in Sam’s story, and the possible motives for Sam to have killed his wife. Marilyn Reese Sheppard…

desk. Her head is on her arms, and her arms are on pieces of crossed out poetry and loose pills of various forms. Her right arm is outstretched a bit, holding the bottle as if it’s all she has left.

Leaving the marks on the background also contributes to the…
