    Justice Lawrence Wargrave
    From an early age I knew very strongly the lust to kill. Justice Wargrave said this just
    after he murdered 9 people on Soldier Island. The theme of vigilante justice is seen by this novel,
    And Then There Were None by Agatha Christie. Mr. Wargrave is a judge who is a smoker who,
    using a pseudonym, invited nine people to Soldier Island to have a party in a mansion closed off
    to the public. Justice Wargrave was the one who murdered all nine people, then himself, on
    Soldier Island.
    In the beginning, he convinces all the guests he was invited just like them, but, the people
    mysteriously start being murdered one by one with their death matching the an old nursery
    rhyme, and some guests suspect Justice Wargrave. So, Wargrave faked his death, and only he,
    and Dr. Armstrong, a guest on the island that was tricked by Wargrave later, knew that he was
    still alive. It wasnt until he killed everyone that he would have to kill himself. He wanted his
    crime to be an unsolved mystery. Just before he shot himself, he wrote his confession on a piece
    of paper, and then put it into a bottle and threw it out to sea.
    From all of this, he was a madman. From the start he wanted to kill, he was also
    corrupted. He gets to see himself as all powerful, as holding the power of life and deathand

    Moore, 2

    its possible that his brain might snap and he might want to go one step further and be
    Executioner and Judge Extraordinary. His reasons for killing those victims were because the
    crimes they committed were not brought to justice by the law. Some of his victims were even
    innocent as they did not do it on purpose or they even tried to prevent their own crimes. Justice
    Wargrave is extremely smart, but unfortunately he went mad and was responsible for ten deaths
    that took place on Soldier Island.
