Answer preview
Harper Lee developed the character of Atticus Finch as a highly moral standard man in society. Hence, the options and courses of action were to defend and prove the innocence of Tom Robinson’s rape allegations. Atticus chose to take the case because he thought that Robinson is being set up. However, Atticus faces massive criticism from Ewell’s family, who are the most notorious in Maycomb and the society at large. The main course of action was to fight for racial equality by proving Robinson’s innocence. Furthermore, Atticus used the mistakes made by his children to keep on fighting and maintain a sense of belief in doing good. Atticus became attached to the case to the extent of guarding and protecting Robinson against the lynch mob. Atticus’s commitment to proving Robinson is not guilty, drags his children along with Dill, who is a friend to the children, and Atticus’s sister. Also, Atticus interrogates Mayella to ascertain the innocence of Robinson, which turns out to be evidential and true that she wasn’t raped. After the court rules the case in favor of the guilty Mr. Ewell, Atticus plans to appeal, but Robinson is shot for trying to escape.
