Chapter 11 - Cousin Mason Confesses Everything To The Police Detectives
Faced with federal wire fraud and forgery charges carrying decades in prison, cousin Mason cracked under pressure. Detective Miller called me into the precinct to listen to the recorded audio confession.
"I didn't forge the signatures myself! Aunt Teresa paid a professional document mill in Memphis," Mason sobbed on the recording. "She promised me twenty percent of the home equity when the sale went through."
Mason also confessed that Teresa had been plotting the takeover ever since Amy and I got married. She resented losing financial control over my construction engineering salary and wanted absolute dominance.

"She called you her retirement fund behind your back," Mason admitted to the detective. Hearing those words spoken aloud confirmed every lingering doubt I had about my mother's true character.
The confession provided the final nail in the coffin for the prosecution's criminal case. Teresa's defense attorney dropped her as a client by Tuesday evening due to overwhelming evidence.
