claims X, X claims
Hi,
Please which of the following uses is better?
1. The victim, claims the convict, was drunk.
2. The victim, the convict claims, was drunk.
N.B. Please I'm not interested in this sentence in particular but rather in the structure. I know there are better ways of saying it.
Thank you!

HifaMo which of the following uses is better? The first one is better as an isolated sentence, but that's just my opinion. Which one is truly better depends on the sentences around it.

- You want to provide some variety in your sentence structures within a paragraph or essay, so you may find that the first structure sometimes fits in with the other sentences better, and sometimes it's the second one that sounds better.
