Chapter 16 - Senator Hale Receives The Federal Lawsuit Subpoena
In Washington D.C., Senator Arthur Hale was stepping out of a high-level committee meeting when federal marshals blocked his path.
A marshal handed him a thick stack of legal papers stamped with the official judicial seal of the United States District Court.
“Senator Hale, you are formally served with a federal civil and criminal RICO indictment filed by Ethan Pierce,” the marshal stated loudly.
News cameras from major networks captured the exact moment the powerful politician’s face turned completely white with panic.
Reporters swarmed the hallway, shouting questions about Victoria’s cancelled checks and the illegal suppression of a living heir.
Senator Hale pushed past the press, ducking into his private office and slamming the door shut while dialing his daughter frantically.

“What did you do, Victoria?!” the Senator roared into his phone. “The federal government just served me with RICO indictments!”
“Ethan has the bank records, the check stubs, and the original blackmail contracts! Our entire family is going to prison!”
