About Murphy

The guy has been...

_ accused of the murder of Wells

_ lynched by people who tried to execute him without trial,

_ banished, again without trial, by Bellamy and Clarke for chasing Charlotte who was the killer,

Murphy's final condamnation seems to be mainly based on the fact he was a bully (with Bellamy's approval, just saying) and on the asumption he wanted to kill Charlotte, someone he finally never touched. But was he in control of himself when he engaged in the pursuit of Charlotte? It is quite easy to claim he was not. He just survived a group of juvenile criminals, including their leader Bellamy, who tried hang him.

Charlotte committed suicide, Murphy is banished on the spot by the two self-proclaimed leaders of the 100, the case is sorted. Right. But what about the guys who were chasing Carlotte with Murphy? Nothing. What about the group of people who wanted to kill Murphy? Nothing. Apparently, a mob and a selfprocalmed leader of the mob (Bellamy) giving the mob what the mob wants cannot be guilty, or not even prosecuted. How convenient.

Thus, the case is sorted for everyone... except Murphy.

What happend next? Murphy later came back. He killed two of the persons who tried to hang him and he also tried to hang Bellamy. So now Muprhy is a murderer and everyone is morally authorized to shot him down just like Raven tried to do when Murphy came to see her at the camp after the attack.

It is funny how much The 100 can tell about our conception of justice with this case. Murphy has been initially denied the most basic rights, but apparently most people do not see it this way and it worries me... Murphy was not a saint, ok he is a bully, but bullies too deserve justice. It is clear Murphy was first the victim of an unfair system (no trial, abusive sentence). He became a murderer later in his quest for revenge.

Ho, something else, the actor is the very good surprise of the cast. He is really good.
