A summary of a story I read some days ago Stanley Wade was a successful 50-year-old lawyer. One evening, after the work, he decided to buy a frozen pizza for his wife and for himself. While he was choosing which pizza to buy, he saw a tall man pratically breathing on him. The man asked Stanley whether he was Lawyer Wade and after he got a positive answer, he disappeared. When Stanley was convinced the man was no longer in the shop, he strolled to his car, but some minutes later, a pistol approached his head and the man he had met in the shop was now throwing him into a pickup. A very young man was driving; shortly afterwards the man with the pistol introduced himself: he was Jim Cranwell and the boy driving the pickup was his son Doyle. Stainley had already heard that name but couldn't remember on which occassion. But when he heard from Jim the phrase"Michael's case" ,the brain damaged child, he suddenly remembered that case. It had been eight years earlier Stanley met that man. After a lot of driving, they arrived at a small brick house. Stainley was led, always with the pistol behind his neck, to a small room where a little boy was lying on a bed. Now Stainley could perfectly remember that child, whose name was Michael. Jim was his father and next to the bed was Becky, Michael's mother. The lawyer could feel the anger of those peoplr, he could see it in their eyes. Jim took from a drawer the transcription of the trial. He reminded Stainley to ahve called them "opportunistic" only because they had asked for money for their child's assistance. If theie child were in those conditions, it was because of Dr. Trane who had made many mistakea before, during and after the birth of Michael. Dr. Trane was Stainley's clients and their victory had been overwhelming. But now, after eight years, it was , even to the lawyer, an injustice. There had been nothing to punish Dr. Trane. There had been only lies. After Jim told Stainley about their suffering life, he led the lawyer to the pickup again. Time passed and Stainley believed he would be killed for what he had done to simple people like the Cranwells. But Jim stopped the pickup and said" you have no idea of the misery you have caused". Stainley returned home but said nothing about what had happened that night.
