THE CRIMINAL    

                         BY:SOFIA SNODGRASS

          When I turned to get my ticket for speeding I looked straight into the cop’s eyes. This situation has happened many times before - I was used to it. I had looked into Ms. Spangles eyes many times - I knew her very well. She was tired of seeing me doing bad things and was relieved because speeding was not a such bad thing compared to other crimes I had committed. The other thing that I hate is that Ms. Spangles is my mom’s best friend so my mom knew everything, which was not fun. When I got home and gave my mom my ticket she was shocked to see that it was only speeding. I don’t know what she will do. Because this was nothing I didn’t deserve any punishment, I had been in jail before and it was miserable. Then suddenly I got the worst feeling that I was scared.
