Chapter 8 - The Arrest

Three police cruisers violently swerved onto the driveway, their red and blue lights flashing brilliantly through the large dining room windows.
Six armed police officers burst through the front doors, their hands resting on their duty belts.
"Nobody move!" the lead officer barked, surveying the chaotic, shattered dining room.
Michael immediately raised his hands, pointing down at Robert. "Officer, I have digital audio evidence of this man conspiring to commit premeditated murder against my sister using stolen medical-grade fentanyl. He is a flight risk."
Robert sobbed hysterically on the floor. "He's lying! I'm a doctor! I save lives! They set me up to steal my money!"
The lead officer didn't hesitate. He had already received the frantic 911 calls from the guests detailing the audio recording. He grabbed Robert by the arms, violently hauling the wealthy surgeon up from the broken glass.
The cold steel handcuffs clicked loudly around Robert’s wrists, snapping the arrogant narcissist back into the horrific reality of his crimes.
"Robert Vance," the officer announced, his voice echoing off the walls. "You are under arrest for conspiracy to commit murder and domestic abuse."
"No! Please!" Robert shrieked like a banshee as the officers dragged him toward the front doors. "I am a prominent surgeon! You can't put me in handcuffs! Call my lawyer!"

"Your lawyer can't save you from a federal drug charge," the officer replied coldly.
