Dr. Frankenstein was not innocent, he purposely set out to create his monster.

Frankenstein's monster on the other hand, was innocent because he was brought up by nature and not nurture (family). He has to fend (manage without help) and learn himself he soon learnt why people hated him.

However, the issue of free will is involved. Is the monster (the one acting) responsible for the death? After all he decided to do it. Victor had no dominion over the monster and he even willed it to stop. He is, in this approach, guilty also.

Educating Rita-how does rita develop a relationship with Frank?

Frank brings up Mary Shellys 'Frankenstein' in conversation, which is interesting as the story has some relevance in what has happened within the play. Frankenstein's 'monster' starts out as innocent and uneducated as a child, but escapes and experiences the world, further educating himself until he becomes as proficient in the spoken word and cognitive thinking as Frankenstein himself. In a way this has happened with franks 'creation', Rita. She began innocent, and with frank guiding the first part of the journey transformed herself into and educated person in the middle class. However by doing this she distances herself from her initial 'creator'. This also bears relevance to Frankenstein, as Frankensteins monster grows to hate his creator for all the misery he has been placed through in the educating process.

Why does Frankenstein call Justine's trial a wretched mockery of justice What is ironic about Frankenstein's belief about who is guilty?

Frankenstein refers to Justine's trial as a "wretched mockery of justice" because it is evident to him that she is innocent of the murder of William, yet the evidence against her is fabricated and circumstantial, leading to her wrongful conviction. The irony lies in Frankenstein's belief that Justine is guilty of the crime, as he himself is the true murderer, having created the creature that committed the act. His inability to confess his own guilt while witnessing Justine's suffering highlights his moral failure and the tragic consequences of his actions.
