Chapter 20 - The Arrest of Marcus Vance

At 2:00 PM, federal marshals surrounded the luxury high-rise law office of Vance & Partners in downtown Washington D.C.
Agents marched through the glass doors, presenting a federal arrest warrant signed by a United States District Judge.
Marcus Vance was cuffed in front of forty junior partners, his legal career ending in utter public humiliation.
Investigators seized sixty file boxes of confidential documents detailing decades of fraudulent real estate transfers.
In Marcus's desk drawer, agents found an original copy of Eleanor Vance's real birth registry, proving his active role in the cover-up.
As he was led into the waiting police cruiser, Marcus refused to speak to reporters, his face buried in his coat.
