Chapter 16 - Wife Testifies With Cold Precision
Two hours later, after emergency warrants were executed, both women sat in the witness box under federal subpoena.
The federal prosecutor paced before the jury box, holding printed transcripts of text messages exchanged between the two women.

“He was abusive behind closed doors for months, and we did what we had to do to escape his control,” Sarah lied coldly.
The prosecutor clicked his remote, projecting a text message thread onto the screen dated three weeks prior to the incident.
“Once he signs the transfer papers, we trigger the whip routine and call the cops,” the message from Sarah read clearly.

Sarah stared at the screen, her elaborate web of lies burning down to ash before millions of watching eyes.
