    the tender mind of scout was badly entangled in the the case from which she draws out the similarity that whatsoever happened in the court was, as a matter of fact, merely prejudice, the innocence of Tom was crystal clear to each and every person present in the court yet. nobody stepped forward. nevertheless Ewell was highlt disgust by the society but his skin colour mattered much than that of n innocent person's life. this made scout think that whatever happened in the court is the truth and actually the hearts of people are rotten with the concept of famil streaks, skin colour and status. and as in the court the decision was not justified similarily the hearts of those people are cruel and blind towards the innonence.
