Leo Frank Trial - Luther Rosser Closing Arguments Part 1
- 8 months ago
In his address to the jury, Mr. Rosser emphasizes the value of impartiality and the need to do so without passion or cruelty when deciding whether to take a man's life. He explains that because they are distinguished from careless people who wander aimlessly or in fits of reverence, jurors are different from people who are out on the streets. He also stresses how crucial it is to be impartial and pass on a man's life without passion or cruelty because it is their responsibility to do so. The detectives who tracked down two people to swear against Frank, Dalton and Conley, are the most crucial details in this trial . Dalton stole three times in Walton County before moving to another county, where he most likely went to avoid more trouble. Mr. Arnold told him in his ear as he took the stand that he was a thief, and he started to evade and flinch.
He knew he was a thief when he walked away from the stand. Dalton traveled to Atlanta, underwent a change of heart, joined a religious group, and persuaded them that he was no longer acting immorally. The narrator's belief in the divine power of regeneration and the possibility of reformation make up the text's most crucial details. One kind of man, though, cannot be changed: once a thief, always a thief. When they crucified the narrator and hung him on the cross on the hill, the narrator's master recognized the traits of a thief. Dalton defiled the name of his race, was a thief and worse, but after joining the church, he turned into a respectable, credible man. He was proud to respond in the affirmative when asked if he had ever visited that depressing, filthy factory basement with a woman for immoral purposes. Dalton had never before been the center of attention. The key information in this passage is that Dalton was questioned about his guilt and that, if he had fallen, he boasted and braggadocio about it.
He claimed he had no idea that she was such a peach that he was unable to look away to look at Frank's woman. Conley offers a different account, claiming that Frank kept the peach and lemon for himself and that Dalton had to find him a new partner. According to Dalton's account, he took that woman into the factory, into a filthy, unpleasant footed hole where slime oozed and where no respectable dog or cat would go, and there he satisfied his passion.
The most crucial information in this passage is that Dalton and Conley went to the Clark Wooden Ware Company at 2:00 on a Saturday afternoon last year and left an Uzi trail behind them. Additionally, they looked for evidence that would expose the factory as an evil entity. Only Frank could make the statement to the jury; neither he nor Mr. Dot Arnold were aware of what Frank would say when he took the stand. In addition, he claimed that it would be impossible to round up 100 working women and girls in Atlanta using a fine-toothed comb, and that no working men in Atlanta would be so cold-blooded as to permit such conditions.
