9. Write a STRONG PARAGRAPH about who is responsible for Piggy’s death and why.

I think that Jack is fully responsible for Piggy's death. If you notice, Roger is a part of Jack's tribe, and is also somewhat like Jack right-hand-man. Through-out the book, Jack really disliked Piggy. That would give a good reason to want to kill him. Through the book Jack also had an urge to kill. He didn't want to get in trouble for murder, so he had his partner do it; Roger. Either way, Jack is at fault for the murder.
