Vea used "Time Travel" as a metaphor in the beginning of the chapter. When Jesse entered the elevator and it started to go up, it reminded him of the Huey helicopter he had ridden in.

"…. he braced himself by grabbing a handrail as he began to experience the familiar yet still disconcerting sensation…." (vea.pg52)
Time Travel was an escape from reality for Jesse. “Time Travel" is used in other parts of the novel when Jesse remembers his past as a soldier in Vietnam.

week one response

1)Based on the text, Jesse's comparison is fairly appropriate because Jesse was given an opportunity to defend his country, and this can benefit him being a Defense Attorney by defending people. Jesse also has experience of being a soldier, he knows what trials and tribulations the soldiers have to go through. This gives him an opportunity to relate to ones situation , and can benefit him greatly as a defense attorney.

I would rather be a defense attorney instead of a prosecutor. There are so many individuals that get prosecuted for a crime that they aren't even responsible. Which is unfair. In order for me to be a defense attorney, there would have to be a mass amount of evidence that shows that my client is innocent. Prosecuting someone can be good and bad, without evidence even worse. I wouldn't want to prosecute someone that's completely innocent.
