In the case between Tom Robinson and Mayella Ewell the evidence was he said she said. There were no witness' to the rape and yet Tom Robinson will still be hanged for the crime. In the south it didn't matter whether you were guilty or innocent, if you were a black person and were charged for a crime with a white witness, you wouldn't be found innocent. This to me is a very sad and disappointing truth that because of your skin you were thought to be instantly guilty.
