Chapter 0785

“I call upon Mr. Frank Levett Sr. to testify. Unfortunately, he is unable to speak, as his tongue and vocal cords were cruelly severed. However, despite this tragedy, he remains strong and has developed a way to communicate through writing.

“Please assist in bringing in Mr. Frank Levett, who has personally requested to testify against his own son. I ask for patience and understanding, as this man, despite his inability to speak, has much to say.”

The courtroom doors opened, and an elderly man in a wheelchair was wheeled inside.

There was nothing left of the once–powerful and imposing figure he had been. The man sitting there was hunched over, his frail body wrapped in a simple suit. He wore dark sunglasses to cover the scars where his eyes use to be. An oxygen mask covered the lower half of his face, and his hands trembled violently.

The judge had already arranged for an official witness to verify the validity of Frank Levett Sr.’s written testimony. Normally, such methods weren’t allowed, but considering who he was–the once–revered Judge Levett- exceptions were made.

Anthony Moriarty had struck a deal with the old man.

Frank Levett Sr. had agreed to plead guilty to the massacre of the Bartz family, in exchange for a pardon. It was obvious that, given his age and condition, he wouldn’t last long enough to serve any real prison time. But Anthony had the power to make his remaining days miserable.

The courtroom was prepared to project everything the old man wrote. As the prosecutor and defense attorney questioned him, his answers shocked everyone.

He revealed the gruesome details of what had been done to him–how he had lost his voice and his tongue. And the mastermind behind it all?

His own son.
