When you learn that Don Lupe “had been killed with a machete and witha cattle prod stuck in his stomach,” how does that change your feelings about Juvencio?
What will be an ideal response?
- Even before that revelation, one naturally feels that, however selfish and even cruel Don Lupe may have been, the taking of his life was disproportionate to his offenses against Juvencio Nava. The awareness of the ugly viciousness with which he was murdered, as well as his two days of agony and his expression of concern for his family with his dying breath, inevitably diminishes some of the sympathy we feel for Juvencio, a diminishment no doubt compounded by his whining, defensiveness, and minimization of his act and its consequences: “In other words, that business is already old and should have been forgotten by now” (par. 25).
