Answer: In the book “Just Mercy” by Bryan Stevenson, Ralph Myers is a key witness in the case against Walter McMillian. Myers initially accuses Walter of committing a murder, but later tries to recant his testimony several times. He keeps changing his mind about whether or not to tell the truth about his false accusation against Walter.
Myers’ indecisiveness reveals that he is conflicted and struggling with his conscience. He is aware that his false testimony has sent an innocent man to death row, but he is also afraid of the consequences of telling the truth. Myers’ character is complex; he suffers from trauma-related psychological issues and has a history of using fantastical stories to get attention.
