Chapter 9

The person that I think killed Simon was Jack. I think it was Jack because he was the one who started getting people chanting "kill the beast, cut its throat, spill its blood!" This motivated the others into a killing frenzy. Jack also was the one added the phrase "do him in!" which is what the Lord of the Flies tells Simon. Jack was also one of the people inside the circle who chased Simon off the cliff and tore him limb from limb. Since Jack was the leader of the group that killed Simon I think this is what makes him guilty.
