Yes he had a good case and yes it was all true, but you needed beyond a reasonable doubt which is very tough in the southern society at this time fighting for a black man.

I feel like this is true because if you want to live a joyful life you have to try and ignore other peoples negativity.

Bobbys wife left out of embarrassment of him reopening a case of a black man's murder. One night Bobby came home to her bags packed claiming she needed to get away for a while. This showed how opinionated, stubborn, and racist she had been. She refused to hear Bobby out and stuck to her ways.

Murder is murder. And it's my job to bring the son of a bitch to justice. And it's still your job to help me."

I think this is an important quote because it shows how Bobby views the situation and that even if everyone is against him, he is still going to do what he feels is right.

I just think this was one of the first things that kind of showed Bobby how his decision affected others around him and I just think that's kinda important.
