It’s interesting the way you write with a twist at the end, because the way we perceive the situation means we react differently. Knowing that the person speaking was a prisoner on death row, may have skewed our thinking and our thoughts and perhaps had not allowed us to see him as a human and perhaps only a monster. But instead, we feel a connection to pain we’ve already had and we feel sympathy and empathy for him. Obviously, doesn’t mean what he did (as we do not know, but being on death row, means it was pretty bad) is okay, but unless a psychopath, it means he was hurt beyond repair. Brave writing. Maggie

At first, there was sympathy growing for this person but then in between the lines, I started to grasp and question the mental health of this person possibly. That possibility turned into a sickness of such a severity, that was cause for a death row sentence. Amazing depth of writing and the twist at the end, here, Abbie!!!
