Mayella's Injuries TKAM



















Mayella had a couple different injuries as you can see on my diagram of her. Mayella had a black eye on her right eye suggesting she may have been punched or hit with something hard in the area around her eye or on her eye. Mayella also has bruising around the head which suggests further that she was hit with something hard or by someone. Mayella’s neck had clear bruising that suggests a person's hand had wrapped around her neck. In the book it states that she has a small throat so it would be easy for someone to grab her by the neck.
