Just like the title of the book "The Truth That Will Never Be", at the end of the novel, I wasn't sure who the real murderer was, and the solemn fortress built by reason in the face of sensibility fell apart. The fourth part opens with a quote from the American Quarterly Journal of Criminology and Public Policy, "As far as we know, we do not have a concrete understanding of the reasons behind people's actions, and probably never will." It is difficult for us to analyze impulses and thoughts. After all, psychological analysis sometimes makes mistakes, and there have been many unjust trials in history. Andy Gbagbo, Jacob's father, also disturbed his mind because his son was caught in the trial, - he felt that his son did not kill, even if his son became a murder suspect, because of love, he couldn't watch it. Know the truth of the facts, even if he knows the truth about the courts and the judiciary better than anyone else, as well as the truth about his son. Andy saw Jacob's evaluation of Jacob on Facebook, only to find that the good boy has become a problem boy, and then found Jacob's eccentric hobby, that is, he likes to watch "cutting". Room", which is the news of the dismemberment that appeared before, and then his son wrote a cold article about the incident a few days after Benjamin was killed, but Andy still believed that his son was innocent.
During the trial, Andy's family also slowly began to have problems, Loli also began to doubt her son, and Andy's family history was also exposed, saying that their family had violent blood, saying that Andy's great-grandfather grew up It's a villain with murder genes, and in the end he was judged to be an abnormal child, a perverted child, based on Jacob's "heart two sizes smaller". From this point alone, I felt the ruthlessness of society. No one paid tribute to Benjamin, but felt that he was also an imperfect person, and the court did not intervene from the real evidence, but moved out so many. Stereotype analysis, one-sided evaluation of a person such as murderous genes and violent bloodline will always make mistakes. Finally, after Andy's efforts, all the evidence was truncated, proving Jacob's "absence". But Buddy found a scapegoat, that is Paz, he used his pedophile tendency to persecute the crime, and finally through the secret arrangement of Buddy's father, Father O'Reilly actually helped save the siege, Threatening Paz to hang himself and writing a confession is a crazy world. And Jacob was exonerated.
But Jacob's mother Loli had a different feeling. When they moved to a new place of residence, when Jacob fell in love with a Hope girl, he thought it was "hope", but after a while, Hope also died Now, Loli saw the blood on Jacob's body, and slowly her mother became desperate, but she still loved Jacob so much in her heart, and finally she chose to drive on the highway to end the lives of herself and her son, hoping This truth will never be revealed, and she still loves her because of doting, so there is no day of confession, and no day of repentance.
