Keep working on developing your discussion of some of the moral theories to the situation hereâ�¦ weâ��ve learned about several different ethical and moral theories in the class and this was a great opportunity to pull those out and apply them here.  As you revise, go back to the first assessment and take a look again at the matrix you did.  How would the 4 theories weâ��ve been studying apply in the Tonya case?  What would change (if anything) in the outcome / decisions made depending on the application of each of the 4 ethical theories here?
