Chapter 852: Chapter 427: The Return of the Ruthless
“All rise!”
Alica decided not to care too much anymore, she stood up directly and announced, “The accused, Derick, Andre, Stevenson… guilty of misuse of authority, corruption, bribery, tax evasion, and other charges.”
“The verdict is as follows, the accused Derick is sentenced to 20 years in prison, no parole!”
“The accused Andre is sentenced to 20 years in prison, no parole!”
“The accused…”
The people on trial this ti were not ordinary; they were top officials from New York, so Alica and David had previously agreed to apply standard sentencing to minimize the turbulence in New York State.
It’s worth ntioning that in the past trials, upon hearing the verdicts, those accused would almost always look ashen or slump in their seats.
However, now, upon hearing such a verdict, Derick and his group rely looked slightly disturbed and did not show any signs of collapsing.
This once again triggered speculation among those inside and outside the courtroom—could it be that they still had so trick up their sleeves?
“Inspector David, I feel sothing is not quite right.”
As soon as the trial concluded, Nehem and Goldwin along with other Internal Revenue Service officials approached him, expressing concern.
“There indeed is sothing off; I think they might still have so other plans.”
David had seed a bit puzzled earlier, but by now, he had pretty much figured it out.
During the two days these people were held in custody, the Freemasonry Group had sent quite a few people to visit them; perhaps the Freemasonry had given them so reassurance.
But no matter what, now that these people have been sentenced, they would never escape from his grasp!
“Hmm, that’s possible…”
Hearing this, Goldwin, Nehem, and others seed to agree, and then Rogodvin added, “No matter what plans they have, once they enter our IRS prison, it’s not so easy to get out!”
David nodded, saying, “Director Goldwin, I have another matter to attend to; I’ll see you later.”
“Alright!”
David, accompanied by Manson, Lalin, and Jerry, exited the courtroom doors and got into their vehicle.
…
After the trial, the matter quickly fernted throughout Arica.
After all, these were the mayor and police chief of a global financial hub, as well as the Governor.
Yet, they had fallen into David’s hands, once again making the world aware of David’s fearsoness.
Washington D.C., Internal Revenue Service Headquarters.
“Not bad, David handled this beautifully!”
“Now that this group has been dealt with, it will certainly serve as a warning to other mbers of parliant or candidates. Next, as long as David continues to maneuver, even if he doesn’t capture all the congressional seats in New York State, securing the majority shouldn’t be any problem.”
“With New York State being Freemasonry’s stronghold, this purge of their officials has significantly weakened them. Taking over their controlled congressional seats would basically render them toothless tigers!”
As the verdict was announced, the senior officials finally felt at ease.
Honestly, before the trial, their hearts were still hanging.
Setting aside Stevenson and the others, but Derick was a governor.
If the trial didn’t result in a conviction, the sheer power of a governor making trouble would have been a substantial blow to their IRS.
But fortunately, the outco was smooth, and David, as usual, demonstrated a clean and decisive resolution thod.
“Director, advisor, what’s wrong?”
After the initial euphoria, a senior executive, noticing sothing amiss with the two n, imdiately inquired.
“Don’t you think sothing is off with Derick and Andre?”
Obadiah’s words sparked a realization among the senior officials.
Indeed, they had been puzzled by the deanor of these n all along, but the ensuing joyous verdict had overwheld their minds, making them forget this issue.
Now thinking about it, there really seed to be a problem.
Why would Derick and Andre manage to keep their composure upon hearing that they’d end up in prison?
Could it be… Freemasonry Group had given them so reassurance?
“If that’s the case, then this incident might not be over yet…”
This senior official’s words instantly solidified the atmosphere in the eting room.
If the Freemasonry Group had indeed given so reassurance to these n, then other actions were likely to follow.
“Director…”
While the eting room attendees were still deep in thought, a staff mber burst in.
“Just now, Derick and Andre, while being transferred to the prison, gave an interview, where they all recanted their testimonies, claiming they hadn’t committed those illegal acts, and had been falsely accused by our Internal Revenue Service and Inspector David!”
Hearing this, everyone present was stunned.
Not defending themselves in court, only to stand up and dispute after the verdict when they were about to be taken to prison—what was this move?
“What do they an by this?”
Welton Heng imdiately asked.
According to them, since the trial was in the IRS court, with an IRS judge, everything was prearranged; they knew it was futile to defend themselves at the trial, so they opted for this silent protest.”
“Silent protest…”
The senior officials looked at each other, but soon they figured it out.
