Anyone that commits any type of action or omission that is punishable by law should be punished for what they did. The novel, Lord of the Flies by William Golding emphasizes the dark side and savagery in even the most innocent human beings. Ralph, the protagonist of the story, does his best to keep his innocence, and not become corrupted like a lot of the boys did. Similar to the situation, “Three suffocate in arson attack on Athens bank” By Reuters, where Greeks protesting government austerity measures threw petrol bombs at a bank branch in Athens on Wednesday, killing three people including a pregnant woman, in the worst violence to hit the country since riots in 2008. Ralph from William Golding’s novel, Lord of the Flies should not be charged with murder or any other crimes after being rescued, because he did not become corrupted like the hunters, he did not physically injure or murder and other kids, and he refused to let Jack lead Ralphs group, with his savage mindset.
Unlike the majority of the kids stuck on the island, Ralph did his best to not become corrupted like Jack and the hunters, and lose his innocence before they were rescued. Throughout the story, Ralph always tried to keep his distance and avoids creating a close relationship with Jack and the hunters. Jack is very aggressive and competitive to start with and was upset that Ralph won the election. I ought to be chief,’ said Jack with simple arrogance, ‘because I’m chapter chorister and head boy. I can sing C sharp.’ (Golding 22). Once Jack and the hunters started to go insane, and focused on hunting and causing trouble, Ralph knew he had to stay away from Jack. ‘And you shut up! Who are you, anyway? Sitting there telling people what to do. You can’t hunt, you can’t sing—’ (Golding 91). This is proof that Ralph stayed away from Jack, because Jack always had an aggressive attitude, and disliked Ralph’s leadership.
Ralph has no proof of physically harming any of the boys that were murdered on the island, and can’t be convicted of murder. The two major deaths in The Lord of the Flies were Simon’s death and Piggy’s death. Simon got killed after the boys confused him for the beast, and Piggy died after Roger pushed a boulder onto his head. ‘Surrounded by a fringe of inquisitive bright creatures, itself a silver shape beneath the steadfast constellations, Simon’s dead body moved out toward the open sea'(Golding 154). The boys were so distracted by the fact of the beast on the mountain, that it even made them accidentally kill Simon. Since Ralph still conveys more innocence, he was changed by Simon’s death. Ralph was also devastated by Piggy’s death, as he was killed while Jack and Ralph were arguing. While Piggy had the conch, the boys were throwing rocks at Piggy, but Roger took it a little too far and pushed a boulder onto him.:
The rock struck Piggy a glancing blow from chin to knee: the conch exploded into a thousand white fragments and ceased to exist. Piggy, saying nothing, with no time for even a grunt, traveled through the air sideways from the rock, turning over as he went. Piggy fell 40 feet and landed on his back across the square red rock in the sea. His head opened and stuff came out and turned red. Piggy’s arms and legs twitched a bit, like a pig after it has been killed (Golding 181). From the two major deaths of Simon and Piggy, there is no physical evidence of Ralph committing these murders, as Ralph had very close and strong relationships with Simon and Piggy, and he did not have the savage attitude to murder another kid.
After Ralph was elected as the leader of the group, Jack decided to go off and lead his own group. But with his savage and aggressive attitude, Ralph didn’t let Jack be the leader of him. Ralph noticed sooner than later that Jack and the hunters were starting to go insane, and everyone was following Jack’s rules. “Ralph was on his feet too, shouting for quiet, but no one heard him. All at once the crowd swayed toward the island and was gone—following Jack.” (46 Golding). Jack made a great decision not following Jack’s tracks, because Jack got caught up in hunting and killing, which lead to him and the hunters wanting to kill Ralph, for not living under Jack’s leadership. “The cries, suddenly nearer, jerked him up. He could see a striped savage moving hastily out of a green tangle, and coming toward the mat where he hid, a savage who carried a spear.” (Golding 198). This is proof that Ralph refused to have Jack be his leader and to join his group of hunters.
Ralph from William Golding’s novel, Lord of the Flies should not be charged with murder or any other crimes after being rescued. Unlike Jack and some other boys, Ralph should not be charged with murder because he did not become corrupted as the hunters did, didn’t physically harm or kill anyone throughout the story, and he didn’t let Jack be the leader of him. These three reasons and evidence prove how he is innocent of murder.
