White lies from Mayella Ewell

"Who beat you up? Tom Robinson or your father?," said Atticus
No answers
Did this man took advantage of you?"
No answer
" I got something to say, and i ain't gonna say no more. That nigger yonder took advantage of me an' if you fine fancy gentlemen don't wanta do nothing about it then you're all yellow stinkin' cowards, stinkin' cowards, the lot of you."

It was trial day for Tom Robinson, the man accused of raping a white woman name Mayella Ewell. Atticus Finch was defending for Tom Robinson while Mr. Gilmere was defending for Mayella. Atticus is keep interrogating mayella because he believes that she is telling lies about the incident. Atticus told Tom to stand up so that Mayella can take a good look at him. Tom Robinson left arm was not perfect when he stood up.

Reverend Sykes told Jem that he got his left arm caught in a cotton gin when he was 12 years old. How could Tom do it if his left arm was in bad condition.

Mayella kept crying throughout the trial because of Atticus interrogating her. So after the trial, Tom and Mayella were both convicted and tom explained everything where she hugged him and jumped on him while passing by her house. 

An example of this Tom Robinson Trial is Emmitt Till, where he was accused of flirting with a white woman and he was beaten and shot to death. I think Tom is telling the truth, Mayella is defending herself by lying. She is the one that needs to be charged and guilty.
