On August 7th of 2005 there was a robbery and a murder. The victim of the murder and robbery is Robert Nesbitt. The place robbed was Robert Nesbitt’s gas station in Brooklyn, New York. There were at least two men involved in this crime James King and Richard (Bobo) Evans. In this case Steve Harmon is guilty due to he agrees to call himself a monster, his alibi is incorrect, and he places himself at the scene of the crime.
In the first place, Steve Harmon calls himself a monster. On page 6 of Steve’s journal he writes, “It’s like a man is looking down to see his son, and his son is a monster instead,” (Page 6 of Steve’s Journal). If Steve didn’t have anything to do with the murder or robbery of Mr.Nesbitt why would he call himself a monster? No one else calls him a monster at this time, he calls himself a monster. On the contrary, Steve knows he is a good person. Steve writes in his journal “Miss O’Brien said some things were going to be bad for us because she was afraid that the jury wouldn’t see a difference between me…show more content… In Steve Harmon’s journal he wrote “i thought about writing what happened in the gas station, but i’d rather not have it in my mind.”(Page 7 in Steve’s journal). This proves him guilty because he is not wanting to think of what he did wrong. Steve thinks of himself as a good person and he can’t handle knowing something that he did caused the death of a man. In contrast, Steve wasn’t at the gas station the day of the crime. In Steve’s testimony he says “The day of the robbery I wasn’t at the gas station...Most of the day I went around taking notes about places I wanted to put in my film project.” (Located in transcripted for Podcast 5). There was also a list of places he wanted to visit for his film (Located in Evidence). This is incorrect because nobody can place at any one of the places on the list but there is someone who places him at the scene of the crime and that person is Steve
