Journal 11

Research is going good! I need to find more sources and maybe some video. I'm going to try and use "prezi" for my project. In order to get videos I'll have to go online

Journal 10

Perry does not confess until Dewey tells him the story about killing a black man, something that only Dick would know, it proves that Dick has confessed. He gives a full confession. Dick had thought that Clutter had a large safe. When they didn't find it, Perry wanted to leave. But Dick wanted to look around more. They wake and tie up the entire family. The process takes hours. Perry is frantic. Dick wants to rape Nancy, but Perry threatens to kill him if he does. Finally, Perry shoots the two downstairs and then Dick shoots the two upstairs. This literally made me sick to my stomach when I read this. I was especially stunned to hear that Dick wanted to rape Nancy. I have no empathy towards these scums anymore, they can rot in jail.

Perry = 4 on the insane scale because he has had childhood issues and he killed people...obviously youre crazy if you kill people

Dick=4 on the insane scale because he can easily lie and helped in the murder of the clutters.

Dewey=2 on the insane scale because he is starting to go insane with this case

Journal 8

These are the three books I chose from MeL:


1.A River to Cross (Harris, Yvonne L.) (2011)
        --I chose this book because it sounded like a book about hardships. In the title, the river reminded me of an obstacle someone has to overcome.

2. Easily Amused (Karen McQuestion) (2011)
       --I chose this book because of the title, like myself I am easily amused!


3.Delivered with Love (Sherry Kyle) (2011)
         --I chose this book because it's about a girl who inherits a car from her mother and in the car she finds a letter in which she is determined to find its writer.
