seen Esmeralda. She’s in Tournell, a prison for criminals h Phoebus > Quasimodo
because people say she’s a witch. Madame Faloudel, the i Poorer > richer
owner of a hotel, says Esmeralda killed Phoebus with j happy > sad
a knife. She also saw a man in black drop from the k Frollo > Quasimodo
window into the river. She ran upstairs with the King’s
Guard and saw Esmeralda with her clothes half off. She
thought Esmeralda worked together with the man that
she saw, who was a sorcerer.
Esmeralda said she didn’t kill Phoebus, so the Judge
decided she needed torture. The pain was terrible so
she finally confessed she did it. Frollo visited her and
told her that his love for her was terrible for him, that’s
why he killed Phoebus. Esmeralda said he was the
murderer.
