When most people attacked the accused under the banner of law and morality, Alan stood up and said that we all have an "ego" in our hearts, and a selfish but kind "me". He had doubts about God, but he believed in man, and he believed that there was a justice in the depths of man's heart.
When the law is not perfect, you can only rely on the conscience of the jury. When the defendant does things that the world cannot tolerate, Alan stands up and says that we may not be as good as what he did.
Of course, there are a lot of dramatic plots to set off this character. There may not be such a character in reality, but I just hope that when injustice is encountered, one person can stand up and say that this is wrong, even ourselves.
