Biography: 

Although Jason Compson IV's entry in "Appendix Compson" refers dismissively to the police as not deserving his fear and respect (338), it does turn to "consider" the police repeatedly (338, 342). Jason cannot claim the help of the police without admitting more of his affairs than he cares to, and yet he chafes at paying for a police force that is characterized as existing in "parasitic and sadistic idleness" (342).
