Why does mateo end up in jail in the adventures of huckleberry finn?

1 answer

In "The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn," Mateo does not end up in jail. I'm sorry, but there seems to be a confusion or misinformation regarding the character. Huck Finn's main companion throughout the novel is Jim, a runaway slave. Mateo is not a character in Mark Twain's novel. If you have any other questions or need clarification, please let me know!
