The Green Mile Discussion 3
At this point, we see the entrance of "Wild Bill" Wharton into the Green Mile. While in transport, Wharton appears calm. But upon his entrance to the Green Mile, all hell breaks loose as he slips his chains over Dean's neck and chokes him. This comes as a shock for the E Block guards because all other inmates have been so cooperative. The presence of Wild Bill is proof enough that some people are simply too dangerous, even for Death Row, as he tries to take as many people to the grave with him for as long as he can. It also reveals Percy's true colors when he blanks out from panic, compared to the merciless beating that he deals to Delacroix. It even puts Paul Edgecomb As time progresses, Wharton exhibits on/off periods of violent outbursts. Considering the time period this takes place in, insanity is no contest to the justice system.

Good summary this story is really getting intresting. looking forward to the next chapters.
I agree this is a good summary of Wild Bill's entrance into E block. He is a good example of a criminal that has no remorse for his actions and as you said just wants to take as many people as he can down with him.
