For project 2 I wanted to focus on law. I looked at a variety of criminal cases, read through police reports and took notes on all evidence I found on each case. Can you solve the case? I can!

"The curious Incident of the Dog in the Night Time"
In the beggining, Chris's neighbor, Mrs. Shears's dog passes away. Chris finds him in her back yard with a pitch fork through his body. He is dead. Throughout the book, Chris tries to solve this mystery of who killed Wellington, the dog. He has many issues with his father, being that he is an autistic child and his father is highly impatient. Chris puts his detective skills to work, and toward the end of the book gets lots of surprises. He finds out that his father killed Wellington and his mother didn't actually die..
History
OJ Simpson and Boston Bombing Case
These cases were looked at for my history project. I studied each case thouroughly including all police reports and interviews. I noted all evidence found and used that evidence to figure out what I think might have happened. I made a poster board that had three categories. The categories were Nicole's, Simpson's and the Bronco. I broke the evidence down into each category depending on where the evidence was found, this case had a good bit. I then listed all of the evidence from the Boston Bombing case which wasn't nearly as much. This shows that having a lot of evidence is not as important as having the right evidence. Simpson was found not guilty and Dzhokhar Tsarnaev was found guilty.

Kenneka Jenkins Case
This case was looked at for my art project. I set my sister up to look just like Kenneka Jenkins did in the freezer room of the hotel, and then took photos of her. I used all of the evidence and camera skills that I researched on to make the photos look as realistic as possible.
