PART B: Which TWO details from the text best support the answer to Part A? A: “Ann’s face was covered in bandages, and she was intubated and unconscious, but Andy felt her say, ‘Forgive him.’ His response was immediate. ‘No,’ he said out loud.” ( Paragraph 7)
B: “Visitors to Leon County Jail sit in a row of chairs before a reinforced-glass partition, facing the inmates on the other side — like the familiar setup seen in movies. Kate took the seat opposite Conor, and he immediately told her how sorry he was.” ( Paragraph 17)
C: “The processes are designed to be flexible enough to handle violent crime like assault, but they are rarely used in those situations. And no one I spoke to had ever heard of restorative justice applied for anything as serious as murder.” ( Paragraph 25).
D: “Conor says that he would frequently fall into this ‘wrathful anger,’ and on this day ‘there was so much anger, and I kept snapping.’ Ann started sobbing, saying that Conor didn’t care and that she wanted to die.” ( Paragraph 67).
E: “‘Because we could forgive, people can say her name. People can think about my daughter, and they don’t have to think, Oh, the murdered girl. I think that when people can’t forgive, they’re stuck.’” ( Paragraph 87).
F: “Still, their forgiveness affected Conor, too, and not only in the obvious way of reducing his sentence. ‘With the Grosmaires’ forgiveness,’ he told me, ‘I could accept the responsibility and not be condemned.’” ( Paragraph 88).
