Bill is a fictional character and a key antagonist in Oliver Twist and is a convicted thief and a murderer in the gang of villain.  All through the novel Bill is shadowed by his dog

Explanation:

  • His lover Nancy supports his violent behavior, as she loves him. But Bill viciously kills her as he feels Nancy has betrayed him. When police identified him as a person who was traveling with a dog, Bill attempts to drown his dog to get rid of him. In the end he hangs himself while trying to escape. Whether this act was deliberate or not is unclear
  • Bill has barely any redemptive characteristics. Instead of leaving Oliver on the scene of his failed robbery, Bill picks up and runs with him as far as he could, at the behest of an accomplice, finally hiding Oliver in a ditch. After he hits Nancy mercilessly to death, Bill evidently feels guilty, even though the reader can not be sure that his remorse is not just his belief that villain lied to him about Nancy's betrayal, or the fear that he was caught up in the crime.
