We never let him. Maurice, listen to me, he pleaded. Michael Myshkin might have been soft in the head, but his heart was hard, rock hard. He did those things, killed them girls. Sure as Im sitting here and youre sitting there. I said nothing. You know it in your heart, he said. You know it in your heart. In my heart I shook my head: So its just a bleeding coincidence then? Like I say. Well, like I say, theres no such fucking thing. Ronald Angus sighed. He slapped his hands down hard on the top of his big desk.

In my heart I shook my head: So its just a bleeding coincidence then? Like I say. Well, like I say, theres no such fucking thing. Ronald Angus sighed. He slapped his hands down hard on the top of his big desk. He stood up. He walked over to the window. He looked up at another grey sky over Wakefield. It was starting to rain again.
Mrs Myshkin says to her sister: He saw Michael on Saturday. The other woman smiles: You will help him then? You put down your cup and saucer and turn to Mrs Myshkin: Im not sure I can. Both the little women are staring at you. As I told you last week, you begin. I dont have any experience with appeals. Both little women staring at you, the fat man sweating on the small settee. Not this kind of appeal. You see, what should happen, should have happened in Michaels case, is that his original solicitor and his counsel, they should have lodged an appeal after his trial.
