Picking Cotton Chapter 5-8

In chapter 5 to 8 in picking cotton I think it was basically Ronald cotton perspectives while he was in jail and the things that run through his mind while trying to defend himself not be be guilty. However with all Ronal cotton voice of being innocent was heard by the police and he was sent to prison for years. While Ronald Cotton was in jail he explains his poor background and youthful indiscretions, then his horror at realizing that he was going to jail for a crime he did not commit. His description of jail life is shocking, detailing that while he tried to keep a low profile, he still constantly looked over his shoulder, ready to defend himself against attacks from fellow inmates. Incredibly, he met Thompson's real attacker fellow prisoner Bobby Poole, a criminal with a history of sexual assault. Cotton noticed his strong resemblance to Poole, and immediately contacted his lawyer, asking for a new trial.
