"Verbrechen" is a book that collects several real stories, and most of the main characters in these stories commit a crime. The author is a German lawyer who defends for these defendants, and he wrote this book as records of every story.
I will always rethink about the crime happen in out society. Every time when I read the crime events from news, especially the cruel murder events, I cannot understand, and I cannot bare that why a person can do such terrible things. However, after reading this book, I discover that perhaps not all the people who commit the crime is because of hostility, but some of them have their own difficulties which we cannot imagine or understand before experiencing them.
As a law student, it is important for me to learn to stand on these convicts' side to think before I make a comment on them.
Besides, I am of the opinion that law is the symbol of justice. Therefore, I used to feel angry and unfair as I see the news which reports the "dinosaur judge", which means the judge who makes an unacceptable judgement. Nevertheless, in this book, it records lots of real cases which cannot be solved due to the limited evidence and the lawyer's defending skill. These stories make me rethink that judge is not a god but a person; therefore, judge does not have the ability to reappear the truth. The only thing the judge can do is to follow the evidence, and try his or her best to make a good judgement. The society should give more respect to the judges' decision, and should not condemn them too much.
