Chapter 17 - Denying early parole to a bitter former socialite who refuses to express genuine remorse for orchestrating years of horrific child cruelty and massive corporate fraud.
At the Danbury Federal Correctional Institution in Connecticut, Sarah appeared before the state parole board for her first probation hearing.
Wearing a dull grey uniform with her hair pulled back into a thin knot, she sat before three stern parole commissioners.
"Mrs. Vance, your prison records indicate multiple disciplinary infractions and a complete lack of remorse for your crimes," the commissioner noted.
"I was wrongfully accused! It was all a misunderstanding orchestrated by William Sterling to destroy my reputation!" Sarah shouted angrily.
The lead commissioner shook his head in absolute disgust, closing her inmate case file and stamping a heavy red seal across the front.
"Early parole is denied; you will serve the full remaining twenty-two years of your sentence without exception," the commissioner ruled firmly.
Guards pulled the screaming woman back to her cell as she cursed the day she ever tried to harm little Maya Sterling.
