Chapter 12 - A Forensic Audit Exposes Years Of Systematic Wage Theft
Back at the federal courthouse, independent forensic auditors released the preliminary findings of the Sterling’s Bistro audit.
The numbers were staggering, revealing over two million dollars in unpaid wages, withheld tips, and fraudulent tax filings.
Over forty former employees, mostly single mothers and immigrant workers, were identified as victims of systematic wage theft.
News crews gathered outside the federal courthouse, interviewing workers who had suffered in silence for years.
Among them was an elderly dishwasher who had lost his home because Arthur refused to pay him for six months of work.
The public outcry was deafening, turning Sterling’s Bistro into a national symbol of corporate exploitation and greed.
Vincent Kane watched the broadcast from his study, quietly authorizing his legal team to set up a multi-million-dollar restitution fund.
Every single victim would receive full back-pay, plus housing assistance and medical care, funded directly by Kane Holdings.
