Chapter 9 - Legal Counsel Prepares the Trap
Downtown, a high-priced defense attorney hired by the husband's business associates rushed into the precinct holding room.
He slammed his leather briefcase onto the table, looking at his client with a mixture of urgency and professional concern.
“Mark, the district attorney is pushing for expedited arraignment on domestic abuse and felony assault charges,” the lawyer said.
“You have to get me out! My wife and mother framed me to steal my corporate holdings!” Mark shouted desperately.
“The prosecutor has signed statements, physical evidence of whip marks on both women, and a wiped security system,” the lawyer reminded him.
“They wiped it! Not me! Check my phone logs! Check my cloud backups!” Mark pleaded, slamming his cuffed hands down.
“The cloud backups were formatted from an IP address originating inside your own home network an hour after our arrest,” the lawyer noted.
