Chapter 6 - Officer Davis Gathers Initial Evidence From The Foyer
Sarah led Officer Davis into the living room where Lily was sitting quietly, sipping her water and watching television.
Officer Davis crouched down to eye level with Lily, speaking in a gentle, reassuring tone to avoid causing further trauma.
“Hi Lily, I’m Officer Davis. Can you tell me what happened out on the back porch today?” the officer asked kindly.
Lily looked up at her mother for reassurance before speaking in a soft, trembling voice.
“Grandma Barbara tied me to the post with thick rope and put tape over my mouth because Daddy told her to,” Lily whispered.
Officer Davis nodded grimly, noting every detail before standing up and pocketing her official notebook.
“That constitutes felony child endangerment, unlawful imprisonment, and domestic abuse under state law,” Officer Davis confirmed firmly.
Sarah handed the small black USB drive to the officer, sealing it inside a sterile plastic evidence bag.

“My husband and mother-in-law were using my daughter as a pawn to hide this drive containing illicit corporate files,” Sarah added.
Officer Davis examined the evidence pouch carefully, knowing this case had just escalated far beyond a standard domestic dispute.
