Chapter 16 - The Grand Jury Subpoena Arrives

“What is this, Dad? Did Arthur leave this for you?” I asked, looking down at my father who sat propped up against the pillows.
“He said the corruption in Marion County goes much deeper than Marcus and the local police chief,” my father answered quietly.

“He said our family’s estate was targeted because of a secret land deal the county government tried to force through last year.”
I opened the subpoena pages, reading the list of corporate entities and local politicians scheduled for federal indictment next week.
