Question by 53Percent: To Kill a Mockingbird- What were the differences between the two trials? Your thoughts?
What were the differences between process and result in the “two trails” and what did it mean to be a “good lawyer” ?
Additional Details
Any chance of getting any REAL discussion ? I’m looking for in depth opinions and ideas.
No silly, “read the book”, “answers”, please. I HAVE read the book, but I’d like to hear others views of the book.
Thanks !

Though the verdict is unfortunate, Atticus feels some satisfaction that the jury took so long deciding. Usually, the decision would be made in minutes, because a black man’s word would not be trusted. Atticus is hoping for an appeal, but unfortunately Tom tries to escape from his prison and is shot to death in the process. Jem has trouble handling the results of the trial, feeling that his trust in the goodness and rationality of humanity has been betrayed.
