Here is the interview transcript of the interviewer, Jeremy Ee, interviewing Jeremy Finch right after Tom Robinson was found guilty of rape:
Jeremy Ee: You have witnessed the Maycomb trial. What is your opinion on the final decision that Tom Robinson is guilty?
Jeremy Finch: It is wrong, absolutely wrong! I have never seen such a biased..
Jeremy Ee: Hang on! So you, unlike many others, feel that Tom Robinson should not be charged?
Jeremy Finch(angrily): Yes, certainly. There were so many loopholes in the Ewell's story, I simply cannot believe that the decision went their way! The Ewell's were evidently twisting the story to their favour!
Jeremy Ee: Yes, indeed, it did seem that way during the trial. So, do you think that there is a underlying reason for the jury favouring the Ewells'?
Jeremy Finch: Look around Maycomb, most people here are prejudice towards the blacks! Looking back now, there was simply no chance that the jury would favour Tom Robinson over the Ewells. It is just absolutely wrong! They should not even bother having a trial if that is the case *Sighs and shakes head*
Jeremy Ee: So, what are your opinions on racial biasedness?
Jeremy Finch: In my opinion, all humans are created equal, hence racial biasedness should not exist. I am disappointed and hurt beyond words by the horrible attitude towards blacks most of my neighbours have and I really pity all the blacks out there who have to withstand all these insults and biasedness from the whites. I really wish there is something I can do to help them..
Jeremy Ee: Indeed, so do I. Any last words before we end this interview?
Jeremy Finch: To all people out there reading this interview, I sincerely hope you wake up and realise the simple fact that we whites are no better, if not worse, than the blacks since we have this sort of inappropriate attitude towards them.
