The parole hearing was the straw that broke the camel's back. It was payback time.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: start\"\u003eAn eye for an eye, a tooth for a tooth? No, not for Jessie Bell. Her version of justice wasn't just about getting even. It was about taking back twice as much as had been taken from you. Two eyes for one. Justice meant redressing all the imbalances-and putting out only one eye didn't compare to the loss of all the advantages of losing two eyes.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: start\"\u003eFortunately, Jessie is offered the position of the late Pavo, Regan's Uncle Paul, in the Organization.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: start\"\u003eAnd she accepted it.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: start\"\u003e\"Justice,\" she murmured. \"Poetic justice.

He was found guilty just because he could have done it and people feared him? Who was the real killer?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: start\"\u003eIt was like the whole world was turning crazy. A judge's son murdered innocent kids, then had his kids, in turn, murdered. Dangerous chemicals killed hundreds, then spread into the water supply. The City turned into a permanent rush hour-a panicked slow crawl. Drug dealers and pimps were getting killed on the streets.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp style=\"text-align: start\"\u003eKarma?
