ASSUMED GUILTY

1. Tell a story about a time you (or someone you know) was accused of something you didn’t do.

MY TWIN SISTER STARR HAD A BRUISE ON HER ARM AND MY MOM THOUGHT I HIT HER AND SHE SAID I DID AND MY MOM GROUNDED.

2. What is it about you that made someone assume that you were guilty? Your age? Gender? Skin color? Things you’ve done in the past?

THEY ASSUMED I HIT HER BECAUSE ME AND HER ARE ALWAYS FIGHTING PHYSICALLY AND VERBALLY, IT HAS BEEN NON-STOP SO THEY HAD FINGERS POINTED AT ME.

3. Have you ever assumed someone was guilty and later found out they were innocent? Tell the story.

I WROTE A SPEECH FOR MY 8TH GRADE GRADUATION AND STARR WAS JUDGING IT SO I OUT IT IN A PLACE THAT ONLY SHE KNOWS WHERE IT IS. WHEN I WENT TO TAKE IT OUT IT WAS RIPPED UP AND I ASSUMED IT WAS STARR BECAUSE SHE WAS THE ONLY ON WHO KNEW WHERE IT WAS.
