Answer:
In Geneva, Switzerland, Victor Frankenstein struggled to make a decision during the trial for his brother's murder. He did not want to blame Justine for his brother's death but he also did not want to come forward and confess to creating a monster.
Step-by-step explanation:
Victor Frankenstein's brother, William was murdered.
Justine, who lived with the family, was accused of murdering him. She had not been with the family on the night William was murdered. Several people had seen her the next morning looking confused and frightened. A servant found the locket that Elizabeth had given to William in Justine’s pocket.
Victor was sure that his creature had committed the murder. He was torn between wanting to save Justine and not wanting to reveal his horrible secret to anyone. He felt guilty and considered himself to be the real murderer and cause of his brother's death.
Victor appealed to the courts to let Justine go free, and told his family that she was innocent, but he did not tell anyone about the creature. Despite his appeal, Justine confessed under pressure from her priest. She was convicted and hanged.
