  • greater transparency in organizations promotes better behavior in these situations.

      This part of this sentence is a little confusing to understand. I think it means that the less communication from organizations or people increase the behavior in situations. Maybe it means that the less witnesses or help to prevent these situation results into better outcome.

  • witness might minimize the significance of a crime or try to see it as something other than it was.

      I agree with this statement because the witness might see the crime or the situation in another perspective or view. I see that not only can the witness minimize the crime but might prove the crime of the person innocent.
  • parents refuse to believe their own children’s claims of such abuse or minimize their seriousness — even when the abuse is officially documented

      I believe that this can be true depending on the situation of how bad the crime is and the child's behavior around their parents. If the crime is bad and is surprising to the parent then they might not believe that the child did that crime because they think that the child will never do that kind of thing.

  • insanity would not lie in the anger and darkness of the human mind—though it can be a black and raging place indeed.

      I think this part means that anger is not in the mentally part of us but our mind can be a creative place with many feelings.
  • The rules we know, even the ones we intuitively feel, are by no means the rules we always follow.

      I think this means that even though some people feel and understand the rules and what they did wrong that doesn't guaranteed that the rules and law will be not broken by that person again.

  • When the chimp would make his way to the roof of the house, ordinary strategies for bringing him down—calling, scolding, offers of food—would rarely work. But if Kohts sat down and pretended to cry, the chimp would go to her immediately. "He runs around me as if looking for the offender," she wrote. "He tenderly takes my chin in his palm ... as if trying to understand what is happening."

      I think that this is interesting that chimpanzee can show feelings and emotions towards us humans. I was impress that us humans can raise an animal to have human traits and feelings.
