Native Son pg 77 to 94

Quote: "She was dead and he had killed her. He was a murderer, a Negro murderer, a black murderer. He had killed a white woman."(87).

Significance: This quote is significant because Bigger killed Mary, he continued to do things to Mary and dug a deeper hole for himself. He will definitely get in trouble because he killed a white woman and he is black. When people find out he will be stereotyped. He will get into a lot of trouble because he keeps hiding what he has done to Mary and he wants to make up a lie so he will not get in trouble. Something really bad is going to happen to Bigger even if he confesses just because he is black. Nobody will have sympathy for Bigger because he is black and he did a terrible thing. Bigger is crazy, but for some reason I think Bigger did not know what he was doing at first, and then he panicked and hurt Mary more.

Question: Is Bigger psycho?!?!?! What is going to happen to Bigger now?
