In all my years at Shawshank, there have been less than ten men whom I believed when they told me they were innocent. Andy Dufresne was one of them, although I only became convinced of his innocence over a period of years. If I had been on the jury that heard his case in Portland Superior Court over six stormy weeks in 1947-48, I would have voted to convinct, too.

Answer:

Characterization occurs through the potentially biased point of view of one character.

Explanation:

Characterization refers to the development of a particular character in a narrative. In order to achieve this, the author needs to tell us about the interests, personality, tastes, actions, etc. of that character. He does so in this passage, when he talks about Andy Dufresne. The author, however, does so from the potentially biased point of view of a single character, which might affect the accuracy of the characterization.
