Dear Members of the Jury, You may wonder why I, the __honorable__ Judge Lawrence Wargrave, executed all those murders. The answer is this, I am not sane. Some may say that what I did was unreasonable, but I think it was perfectly normal. I made the world a safer place, one without ruthless killers. Those men and women deserved to die because they were murderers and now they have gotten a taste of their own medicine. What I have done is justified by the fact that I actually saved many peoples lives. Those killers would have murdered several more people if I had not taken care of it. Furthermore, I am entirely correct in my decision to dispose of them. One of these Murderers was Doctor Armstrong. He was a very good doctor, when he wasn’t drunk. The reason that that woman was killed on his operating table is that he was under the influence during the procedure. He would have killed many more people if he continued operating in this manner. He was a danger to all, and I took care of that. He deserved to die in order to bring justice to the person he had killed and the many more that would have occurred if I didn’t stop him. Vera Claythorne, another murderer, let a poor young child die. She was supposed to be watching him, but she let him drown. She didn’t even try hard when she swam out to “save” him. The reason for this is that she and her boyfriend, the child’s uncle, would have gotten a lot of money with the child out of the way. She was so greedy that she killed ICE-2 him just for money, not even caring that he died. Would you, the jury, want this to happen again? Maybe next time it would have been worse if I didn’t put a stop to it. Technically, I  never even killed her. Yes, I put the rope in her room but I didn’t make her hang herself. She did it out of free will and there was no way I would have been able to stop that insane women. Now this man is so uncaring that he let twenty- one people die in an African tribe. Philip Lombard left these people without any food and this resulted in their slow, painful death. He could have cared less about how many lives had been lost. He even stated that they didn’t care about dying. He was selfish and only cared about himself. That is the main reason why I did away with him. He didn’t even go to jail for his wrong doing which is a flaw in the system. I believed that revenge should be taken on this man because of what he has done. He, like the others, deserved to die. Now, you may think that old women are sweet and couldn’t hurt a fly or anything. This is not the case with Emily Brent. She was so obsessed with being proper and well mannered that she killed over it. Beatrice Taylor, a young woman, was in the service with Miss Brent. Emily Brent described this young lady as “a loose girl with no morals”. Brent was so caught up in the fact that she wasn’t proper that she killed her over the issue. Brent said that the young lady committed suicide, but I think that Emily had motive to kill her. Another woman to worry about is Mrs. Rogers. She and Mr. Rogers were house keepers to Jennifer Brady. You have reason to believe that this woman died of old age but this is wrong. Mr. and Mrs. Rogers killed her with the motivation of money. The rich woman’s money was going to go to the Rogers and they couldn’t wait so they killed her. ICE-3 Tony Marston, a young man, murdered two young people with his sports car. He ran them over and he even admitted it. He was more worried about losing his license than those kids losing their lives. He wasn’t even regretting what he had done. It was as if he didn’t even care for those poor children’s lives that had been lost. After you have heard my reasoning for those murders I have committed, you will come to realize that they were completely justified. I, a man of the law, believe that people who do wrong should be punished for it. These men and women didn’t get penalized for their actions so I took the matter into my own hands. What I did was only done for the safety of people everywhere. If I had not finished them, they would have been killing right now with no one stopping them. All of the men and women deserved to die for what they have done. They were malicious killers who liked to watch people suffer. I do not think I am guilty because I only did what was right for man kind and there is no law against that. I hope you people of the jury agree that these were harmful and dangerous people that needed to be executed - Lawrence Wargrave Christie, Agatha. __And Then There Were None__. : Perma Bound, 1940
