“You need to see this.” I slammed the flash drive containing the security footage down on Fuller’s desk without preamble and pointed to it with a trembling finger. “Mr. Black altered those images he showed you. I think this is pretty good proof.” The judge stared down at the little black flash drive on his desk, processing for several long moments.
