Chapter 11 - Corrupt Defense Lawyers Secure Richard Rapid Bail Release
Back at the county courthouse, Richard sat at the defense table flanked by two expensive attorneys from Manhattan.

Judge Henderson banged his wooden gavel sharply, demanding immediate silence before rendering his preliminary bond decision.
