12 Angry Men

An elderly witness says he heard the accused boy say, "I'm going to kill you" to his father, but several of the jurors believe this elder witness could not have heard the boy. An elder juror states that the man might have said this "to be important." The elder juror states:

It was just that I looked at him for a very long time. The seam of his jacket was split just under his shoulder, or did you notice that. To come to court like that. He was a very old man in a torn jacket and he walked slowly to the stand. He was dragging his left leg and trying to hide it cause he was ashamed. I think I know this man better than anyone here. This is a quiet man, silent insignificant old man, who has been nothing his whole life. And has never had recognition or his name in newspapers. Nobody knows him, nobody quotes him and nobody seeks his advice after 75 years. Gentleman that is a very sad thing to be nothing. A man like this needs to be quoted to be listened to, to be quoted just once. It's very important to him. It will be so hard for him to recede into the background...He wouldn't really lie, but perhaps he made himself believe he heard those words and recognized the face.


Example Two: Juror #10 is explaining that they need to get rid of the immigrants in the world and that this kid on trial can be the first to go:

Evaluating the Argument: This argument sufficiently establishes that the conclusion has explanatory clarity. That is, it provides enough evidence to infer that the elderly witness probably did not hear the boy say, "I'm going to kill you." First, an El Train was directly next to the apartment and had been running that night. Second, juror #8 states that he lived next to an El Track and when the window was open as an El Track passed by you could barely hear yourself think because the noise was so loud. Third, it takes an El Train about 10 seconds to pass any given point. Fourth, the body hit the floor just as the El Train passed by, therefore, the train had been roaring past the old man's window for a full 10 seconds before the body hit the floor and according to the man, the boy said, "I am going to kill you" and a second later the body hit the floor. All these premises are establishing explanatory clarity by confirming the conclusion, therefore, there is enough confirm!

4. While the jurors were arguing over the case, juror #4 took off his eyeglasses and rubbed his nose. Juror #9 notices that he has some marks on his nose and that the woman who testified had those same marks. She kept rubbing them in court. Juror #9 notes that the woman was probably 45 years old, but she was trying to make herself look younger. She wore heavy make-up, died her hair, and had brand new clothes on that should have been worn by a younger woman. She did not wear eyeglasses, but many women do that. Juror #9 asks juror #4 if those marks could be made by anything other than eyeglasses. He states that they could not have been made by anything other than eyeglasses. Juror #9 points out the woman's eyesight is now in question. Juror #3, fed up with the old man's unrelated questions, begins to argue that even if she didn't want to wear them out of the house so people would think she is gorgeous, when she saw the kid killing his father, she was in the house alone,!

therefore, she saw the boy clearly and her eyesight is not in question. Juror #9 asks juror #4 if he wears eyeglasses to bed, and he stated that no one wears eyeglasses to bed. Juror #8 states that the woman said she was tossing and turning because she could not fall asleep. Also, that she probably didn't put eyeglasses on as she looked outside the window and that she testified that the killing took place just as she looked out. The lights went out immediately after the killing. She could not have had enough time to put her eyeglasses on. Juror #8 explains that the woman probably just saw a blur and thought it was the boy.

Evaluating the Argument: This argument sufficiently establishes that the conclusion has explanatory clarity. That is, it does provide enough evidence to infer the woman probably did not see the boy kill his father, but instead a blur. First, the woman had marks on her nose, wh
