Answer the question in the passage below from one of the perspectives described in the text.Jan witnessed a certain Mr. Gaines commit a crime several months ago. Despite his certain knowledge of Gaines's guilt, the charges against him were dismissed because of an error in the investigation. Jan is especially upset about the nature of the crime-(a) Gaines was defrauding a charitable organization that Jan happens to think accomplishes a lot of good. Jan also knows that the crime was committed out of greed, since (b) Gaines owns a large jewelry store and is already well-off. Gaines has spoken to his friends about how he got away without having to stand trial, and (c) he is gloating about it.One day, Jan is walking up the alley that runs behind Gaines's store, and he notices that the back
door has been left unlocked and, from the look of things, it appears that the burglar alarm has not been turned on. One of several vaults in the back room has a half-open door. He realizes that he could make off very easily with a large amount of expensive jewelry. (d) The likelihood of his being caught is very small. It occurs to him that it wouldn't be quite the same as stealing, certainly not as bad as what he saw Gaines do, if (e) he did not keep the loot for himself but gave it away. It occurs to him that (f) if he takes what doesn't belong to him he may not be any better than Gaines, and on the small chance he did get caught, nobody would believe him, and (g) the penalties would be stiff. But (h) this is his chance to see justice done with regard to Gaines, and he can make some deserving people very happy with the proceeds of the burglary. Should Jan grab the jewels? What will be an ideal response?
