I suppose my own personal example would be one of the most recent things that happened last year. I was at a going away party for my co workers who were moving back to their home state. It was getting late, so around 2am my boyfriend and I said our goodbyes. The next morning at work, myself and the rest of my coworkers were huddled into the break room by all of our managers to be informed the news that around 5am that same morning, a man came into the house my friends were in and began to shoot all who were still there. I honestly could not believe the news. My heart sank into my stomach and I felt completely frozen. Frozen that I had barely missed the shooting by a few hours, and frozen in that “survivors guilt” sensation. To connect this to the topic of justice, the man who shot three people that morning was caught the next day. Truthfully, there was justice in the fact that he had been apprehended and told the truth. However, the justice never settled the pain of the injured, and the life that was lost.
