PROSECUTORS IN ACTION….BACK TO THE COURTROOM.Jake heaved a sigh as he thought about this.Ethan had made him make a fool of himself for nothing.It was not surprising to him, as he had expected this all along.No one was going to let go of having to go to jail for three solid years for a crime he did not commit and would be willing to let go for a simple kneel and apology. He had expected that already.As Jake sat wondering what was next, he looked back to see Ava being brought in with handcuffs on her hands.The two exchanged quick glances as Ava was being escorted to have a seat.Jake looked at her.She looked rough and had grown very lean.Ava looked away immediately and followed the policewoman to have a seat.Jake heard some footsteps behind, and true enough, he saw Ethan and Mr David walk into the courtroom with smiles on their faces.He bowed his head and looked away to avoid any gaze from Ethan.Jake thought about what his fate in this courtroom that day was going to be. T

THE MAIN CRIME The proceedings continued after the lawyers spoke.“We will need the prosecution to give us a brief overview of what we are looking at, with the main information.Mr Isaac, please walk up here and brief us.” Judge Grant said.Ike stood up with another set of documents in his hand and stood in the middle, facing the audience.“Your Honour. According to all the statements and interrogations conducted at the Bureau of National Investigations, this is what led to the crime and how it wentMr Richard Smith was a delivery man who delivered basic food items, groceries and pizzas for a living.Four years ago, he witnessed a school shooting at the Redwood High School where a gang went to the school and shot a teenager who was believed to have busted the gang in a drug deal.The killer, Mr Julius, was arrested, and Mr Richard Smith testified against him in court after being subpoenaed. He initially did not want to testify because of the fear of the gang but after he was subpoe

OPEN TO NEGOTIATION“Thank you very much, Mr Isaac. We hope the remaining investigations and arrest of the remaining suspects will be completed soon.” Judge Grant said as Ike took his seat.“That being said, this court is on recess for ten minutes. After that, we will continue with cross-examining the suspects.” Judge Grant said and hit his gavel.They stood up, and the court went on recess.Ethan and Mr David did not go out; instead, they sat there, talking.“So, it looks to me like everything is going well. What next?” Ethan whispered to Mr David.By this time, the judges had already walked out.Some of the audience who were not directly related to the case but were just there to witness the proceedings were walking out, and there was a little bit of noise in the courtroom, so they could not be heard.The suspects who had been arraigned sat in their positions together with the policemen, waiting for the recess to be over.“Yes. Everything is in order. The information from their inv

THE DILEMMA Mr David smiled again.“Listen, Ethan, I understand what you are saying, but you know there are different kinds of women out there, and love is built with time. Emily is not just anyone; she is the granddaughter of a very important man, and she is a very important person herself. Likewise yourself, the two of you will be a good match.Again, it is not very easy for women to show interest in men; most of the time, it is the other way aroundSo it is a very good thing when women actually show interest in you.I know Emily very well, because I have been working with her for quite a number of years, and I know her to be a tough lady who is always focused on her work.It was quite surprising to see her do that. I think you should give it a thought yourself and observe her; you will understand what I am talking about,” Mr David said.Ethan nodded.“I will think about it. Unfortunately, I am not really ready for any affair at the moment, especially since I am still dealing with

THE RUNNING MANKnowing who Julius was, Ethan had expected something like this to happen already.He knew that Julius was definitely going to make that move, and fortunately for him, he had already planned ahead of him.After hanging up the phone, Ethan placed a call to someone.“Hello. Good evening, sir.” The receiver said as he answered the call.“Good evening, Jay. How is it going with you?” Ethan asked.“I am very well, sir,” Jay replied.“Great. The stuff I requested – kindly let me know if they are ready. I need them as soon as possible.” Ethan said, “Of course, sir. They were delivered yesterday. I am currently wiring them to work.I have a few more things to do, which I am sure will be done by tomorrow morning,” Jay responded.“Great. Julius has already struck. He has kidnapped one of my managers. We are not going to involve the police. But I want you to put everything in order and make sure things are working.I will come around tomorrow morning so we can handle it.We will
