Chapter 16

The criminal trial was shorter than expected.

Daniel’s texts hurt him most.

Daniel to Victor:

Emily comes home around six. Madison will already be there.

Victor:

Make sure child bag is visible.

Daniel:

If she hits Madison, that helps?

Victor:

Only if recorded.

Daniel:

Camera in living room will catch it.

It showed Daniel watching.

It showed me rushing in.

It showed Madison slapping me first.
