Atticus highlights Mayella Ewell's difficult life and suggests she may have accused Tom Robinson out of fear of her father rather than the truth. By shifting the focus to Mayella's possible motivations, Atticus encourages the jury to consider the broader context of her actions and question her credibility. This approach challenges the jury to think critically about the case and encourages them to look beyond surface appearances.

What does Scout believe the reason to be for Atticus making Bob Ewell write his signature?
Atticus is a very smart man, and there was a good reason for this. Atticus asks Heck Tate which side was bruised, and it was Mayella's right. He asked bob to sign, so he could see if Bob is left handed, which he is. So if you think about it, someone who is left hand dominant will punch on the RIGHT side of someones face. Atticus proves that Bob beat up mayella by doing this.
