Chapter 12 - Victoria’s High-Powered Attorney Threatens Legal Retaliation
Inside the county holding facility, Victoria sat in a sterile interview room tapping her acrylic nails against the steel table.
Her high-priced defense attorney, Arthur Sterling, walked in carrying a thick leather briefcase and a scowl.
“What a catastrophic mess you’ve made, Victoria. Attempted child abuse and assault captured on live household cameras?” Arthur hissed.
“Get me out of here, Arthur! Pay off the judge, threaten the DA, do whatever your corrupt firm does best!” Victoria demanded.
“The DA has classified video footage of an old homicide case from five years ago tied directly to your offshore accounts,” Arthur replied grimly.
Victoria’s jaw dropped in sheer terror as she realized her legal safety net had evaporated into thin air.

“You’re facing federal murder charges alongside state felony assault, and no amount of money can buy your way out,” Arthur warned.
She slumped back in her chair, the stark reality of prison walls closing in around her suffocating ambition.
