The Emergence of the Legacy Man Chapter 411
"I understand your concern, Your Honor. But I had my reasons for remaining quiet about my profession. Camila didn’t know I was a lawyer neither did anyone else. My own family didn't even know I read law. I only stepped forward because of the urgency of the situation. I care deeply for Camila, and I couldn’t sit back and watch her be convicted of something she didn’t do. I’m here now, and I’m prepared to represent her to the best of my ability." She said calmly.The Prosecutor who had been observing the exchange with a growing sense of frustration, stood up abruptly. He became agitated."Your Honor, this is highly irregular! Not only did Ms. Carter conceal her qualifications, but she’s suddenly stepping in as defense counsel in a highly complex murder case. We’ve already seen that Mr. Cassano is not licensed to practice here, and now we have this? This is a circus! How can the court allow this? It’s a clear conflict of interest!" Judge Williams held up a hand to silence him, but the

“Now that I know the whole story, I'll make sure Camila is accounted for and Abraham Corner is punished,” Riley said as Keith thanked him.“But we need to be careful because Abraham now knows what he is up against,” Vincenzo said.“That's true and any we're doing, we need to be fast about it,” Smart said as Riley looked at Sheila.“What about your parents? Do you need me to send my men to protect them?” He asked as Duncan glared at him.“Don't worry. I've covered that up. You don't think I came prepared,” she said, smiling.Some men entered Sheila's parents house to find it empty. The leader picked up his phone and made a call.“Boss, they aren't here. This place is empty,” he reported.Abraham held the phone in his ears as he was fuming. While he was getting angry, his phone rang. He looked at the caller and saw that it was Sheila. He picked it.“I'm sure you didn't call me to take you back,” he said as she chuckled on the phone.“I'm sure your men are already at my parents place. To

“Please, take your team and go search Mrs Genevieve's house again. I'm sure you'll find something,” she said as he nodded.“I'll give you feedback later today,” he said, leaving.“I have a job for you Smart. Think you can handle it?” Sheila asked as he scoffed.“What I'm I, seven?” Hr asked, scoffing. “Hit me on,” he said as Sheila smiled.“Okay. I want you to go to your mother's neighborhood and ask around. Check every CCTV camera and front car cameras. I'm sure we can get something,” she said.“Roger that,” Smart said, saluting her.“Keith, you'll accompany him. The faster the better,” Sheila ordered as Keith nodded.“Duncan, I need you to keep an eye on Abraham's secretary. I have a strong hunch that we can get a lead from there,” Sheila said as Duncan stood up.“I'll do that,” he said as Sheila sighed.“I and Vincenzo are going to scout Abraham's workplace to see if we can find any sustainable evidence,” Sheila said, closing her laptop.“That's not safe for you,” Duncan asked.“An

“You expect us to believe that?” He asked as Vincenzo shrugged.“No way! So what happened?” Keith asked.“I'm a congelier. So I often handle guns too and then I was shot. I ran away to hide and she was just driving by and she came forward and you won't imagine what happened,” he said.“What happened?” Smart asked.“She came up to me and was like what's the need of being in a shootout if you get killed. You look pitiful,” he said as the guys laughed.“That's definitely her,” Keith said, chuckling.“And I was if you aren't going to help, get out,” he said, drinking from his can. “And she was a proud fool. When I wanted to retort, she pinched me on my sound,” the guys laughed.“She can be rude if she wants to,” Duncan said.“I told her I would kill her and she said then I better leave you here to die or go call the people who did this to you so they can take it from here and I shut up,” Vincenzo said as they laughed. “Since then, we have been good friends,” he added.“That's a good stor

"Yeah, I saw him leave too. He was driving really fast, and he didn’t seem like he was in a hurry to get anywhere. It was... suspicious." A neighbor said as whispers were heard."The court will now take a recess. We will reconvene at 3 o'clock to continue these proceedings. Please remember that all court rules and decorum remain in effect during this time. Court is adjourned." The judge said as he struck the gavel.The courtroom is tense, the murmur of the spectators subsiding as the defense lawyer Sheila Hockings, rises to her feet, ready to call the next witness. She gestures toward Adam, who was seated at the witness stand. Sheila moves forward, poised and determined, as the jury watches attentively.“Remind me why I love her again,” Duncan said as Smart looked at him.“I don't know. I think you don't know your problem,” Smart said. Duncan pretended like he didn't hear what his brother said."Mr. Daniels, you are aware that you have been linked to the victim, and to the crime scene

New evidence has surfaced, and it challenges everything we thought we knew about this case. Could it be that Camila Joffrey, accused of murder, has been wrongfully implicated? How is it that Mr. Corner’s secretary is now tied to the crime scene? Was this connection overlooked, or deliberately concealed? And what about Mr. Corner himself? Does he truly have no knowledge of this development, or is he feigning ignorance to sway public opinion in his favor? As the investigation continues, we are committed to uncovering the truth behind these mysteries. Stay with us as we dig deeper into this unfolding story. Reporting live, this is Nicki Samson.Keith turned off the television as he leaned on the table, folding his hands.“So, what next?” Smart asked.“We will investigate his office. Vincenzo and I,” Sheila said, resting her back on the chair. She could feel a headache coming and she felt like vomiting.“I want you three to do something for me,” she said as Duncan turned to her.“What is

“Are you boys ready?” Duncan asked, joining the team as Smart scoffed.“We're not boys. We're grown ass men. One of us has a child while you're still in a complicated relationship because you chose to while I'm just being myself,” Smart pointed out.“He is not in a complicated relationship. He just isn't into any relationship. I heard Sheila broke it off with him. She said she was no longer interested in his back and forth relationship,” Keith said as Smart laughed.“That serves him right,” Smart said as he and Keith fistbumbed.“Guys, I'm right here,” Duncan said, announcing his presence.“You are? We don't see you,” Smart said as Keith laughed while Duncan rolled his eyes.“Whatever. Everything is ready and planned out. We just have to enter his house without being noticed and get right back,” Duncan said as they nodded.“Then let's do this. Costumes check, the guys who would keep watch, check and what again?” Smart asked as Riley came in.“Your ears and eyes, check,” Riley said.“W

They searched through drawers, cupboard for over an hour but still didn't get anything while Abraham was attending to his guests. Adam came forward to say something when the atmosphere changed. Abraham wondered what the problem was until he saw Adam. He clenched his jaw, getting angry.“I have something to discuss with you, sir,” he said as Abraham dragged him to a corner “Are you trying to get me angry?” Abraham asked.“Sir, I need to report something to you,” Adam said but Abraham wasn't having any of it.“Get out. Don't show your face till this is over. Don't you have any shame? Seriously, I'm already getting pissed,” Abraham said, walking away.“Guys, you need to get out of there. Abraham is coming your way,” Riley said as Smart ran out immediately. Keith found a secret room. Just as he was about to check it out, Duncan held him in his hand.“We need to leave now. Abraham is coming,” Duncan said as Keith nodded.“Okay. Let's go,” Keith said as they left. When Abraham came inside

"Abraham Corner, you are hereby sentenced to life imprisonment without the possibility of parole for the murder of Mrs. Genevieve. You are further sentenced to an additional 25 years for the murder of Adam Kurt and 15 years for the coercion and unlawful imprisonment of your employees. These sentences will run consecutively. May this serve as a reminder that no one is above the law." The courtroom erupted into noise as reporters shouting questions, spectators murmuring in shock, and some even clapping in approval. Keith turned to Camila, who sat in silent disbelief, her eyes welling with tears."It’s over. You’re free." Keith said softly as Camila looked at Evelyn, who stood tall and calm, a small but victorious smile on her face.The judge banged his gavel to restore order."Bailiff, escort the defendant out of the courtroom. Court is adjourned." The judge said as the bailiffs approached Abraham, he turned to Sheila, his face dark and menacing."You think you’ve won? This isn’t over."

"You’ll soon be free." He said as Camila nodded, her lips trembling as she smiled. Tears welled in her eyes, but she quickly brushed them away, determined to stay strong.Sheila walked to the center of the courtroom, holding a remote control for the court’s audiovisual system."Your Honor, with your permission, I would like to present a video to the court. Before I play it, I need to explain how I came into possession of this video." Sheila said to the judge. Mr. Nolan immediately rose to his feet."Objection, Your Honor. This is highly irregular. The prosecution cannot…" The judge held up a hand, cutting him off."Mr. Nolan, sit down. Ms. Hockings, you may proceed." The judge said firmly."Thank you, Your Honor." Sheila said, nodding as She turned to face the courtroom, her voice steady and commanding."This video was obtained during my investigation into Mr. Corner’s workplace. It was anonymously sent to me by an employee who could no longer remain silent. The footage, captured by a

"Overruled. Ms. Warren, proceed." The judge said firmly."Thank you, Mr. Wallace. No further questions." Sheila said, turning back to James. She called two more witnesses, each echoing similar stories of abuse, threats, and control. By the end, the jury looked visibly disturbed, and the courtroom buzzed with tension.Finally, Sheila took a deep breath and held up a document."Your Honor, I refer to Section 12.5 of the state constitution, which condemns any individual who uses power, intimidation, or violence to suppress others. Mr. Corner’s actions, as described by these witnesses, align perfectly with this behavior. This is not just a man who mistreats employees. This is a man capable of anything, including the crimes he’s charged with." She said as the courtroom erupted in whispers."What the actual hell! This man is a beast." Smart said, whispering loudly to Duncan."Focus, Smart. This is just the beginning. Let’s see how his lawyer responds." Duncan said, nodding grimly."Your Hon

"Your Honor, members of the jury, today we will uncover the truth about the heinous deaths of Mrs. Genevieve and Mr. Adam Kurt, the accused’s secretary. The evidence points clearly that Abraham Corner killed both of them . While Mr. Corner has denied any involvement, his actions, motives, and the surrounding circumstances tell a different story." She paused, turning slightly toward Abraham at the defense table. "Let’s begin by calling Mr. Corner to the witness stand.""Mr. Corner, please take the stand." The judge said as Abraham stood, his movements deliberate and unhurried. Dressed immaculately in a tailored suit, he exuded confidence as he made his way to the witness stand. His face was unreadable, a mask of composure.After being sworn in, he sat down, clasping his hands lightly on the armrest."Mr. Corner, let’s start with your relationship with Mrs. Genevieve. Were you friends? Business partners?" Ms Harding asked, approaching him with a calm but piercing intensity."Neither. We

Abraham's lawyer came to see him in prison with threatening news.“No one is on your side. They are all against you,” the lawyer said as Abraham clenched his fists.“Make sure you do everything in your power to get me out of here. I can't be here,” Abraham said as the lawyer nodded.“I'll do everything possible. We have a hearing tomorrow. We'll make sure you win the case,” the lawyer said as Abraham sighed.The next day, Sheila prepared for the initial hearing. She wasn't going to miss it for anything. She was going to follow everything so they don't end up losing. While she was preparing, she suddenly felt nauseous. She ran to the bathroom and threw up.“Are you okay? What's going on?” Duncan asked, going to her but she refused his help.“I'm fine. What are you doing here?” She asked him as he felt bad.“Just wanted to check up on you,” he said.“I'm fine,” she said, walking out.The courtroom is tense as Abraham was brought in.
