Chapter 16 - Sophia Is Served With Formal Felony Extortion Warrants

Federal marshals and local detectives tracked Sophia’s burner phone signal straight to her cheap motel room in Queens.
At 4:00 p.m., heavy boots pounded against the exterior metal staircase before the motel door was kicked inward.
“FBI! Federal agents! Do not move your hands!” shouted the lead marshal, sweeping the room with a tactical rifle.
Sophia screamed, dropping her phone as heavy steel handcuffs were snapped mercilessly over her wrists.
“You can’t arrest me! I’m cooperating with international investors!” she shrieked, thrashing against the officers.
Detective Ortiz stepped into the room, holding up a federal arrest warrant charging her with extortion and corporate espionage.

“You’re cooperating with a criminal syndicate that plans to murder you at Pier 42 tonight, Sophia,” Ortiz stated coldly.
Sophia went completely limp in the handcuffs as the brutal reality of her betrayal finally crashed down upon her.
