In “A Rose from Emily”, why do you think Miss Emily’s crime goes undetected until her death? Identify at least three contributing factors and support them with reference to the story.

In “A Rose from Emily”, her crime goes undetected because 1.she is a recluse 2 had a crazy family in   3 she was treated like she was crazy but not to her face.

for the first point she is a recluse because  Wyatt, her great-aunt was crazy and that may have her develop into a recluse. Second point is  her family had a bad reputation  as it says"...even with insanity in the family..." the people felt"When her father died, it got about that the house was all that was left to her; and in a way, people were glad. At last they could pity Miss Emily." the people did not interact with her much less blame her because she had a troubled family. third and final point she did not have interact with the common people. That drives people away from them and no one  goes to visit.
