Chapter 6 - Police Officers Handcuff Martha In Front Of The Neighbors
Two marked Columbus Police cruisers pulled up behind the ambulance, their blue lights casting shadows across the manicured suburban lawn. Officer Higgins entered the foyer, taking immediate control of the scene while his partner spoke with Daniel near the staircase.
"Martha Vance, you are being placed under arrest for domestic violence, felonious assault, and grand theft," Officer Higgins stated, drawing heavy iron handcuffs from his duty belt. He pulled Martha’s arms behind her back, snapping the metal cuffs around her wrists with a heavy click.

Suburban neighbors standing across the street pulled out their smartphones, filming Martha as she was led down the concrete walkway in handcuffs. The proud matriarch of the neighborhood was being paraded in front of her peers like a common criminal.
"Daniel, tell them to stop! You are destroying this family!" Martha shrieked as she was pressed into the back seat of the police cruiser. Daniel didn't answer her; he simply turned around and followed the ambulance to the medical center to be with his wife.
