Chapter 9 - The Security Footage
Brenda jumped up from the sofa, her hands shaking violently. The confident, entitled thief was completely gone, replaced by a terrified, cornered rat.
"This is insane!" Brenda shrieked, pointing a manicured finger at Sarah. "She called you over a piggy bank! I took forty dollars in loose change to buy my kids some gifts! It's a family dispute, not a crime! Tell them, Dad!"
The grandfather rushed forward, trying to block the officers. "Please, she's right! My daughter-in-law is just being hysterical over a broken toy! It's petty cash!"
The lead officer looked at Sarah, waiting for an explanation.
Sarah slowly pulled her smartphone from her pocket. She didn't raise her voice. She simply tapped the screen and turned it around for the officers to see.
"She didn't just steal forty dollars," Sarah said, her voice echoing with lethal, cinematic realism. "Inside that bank was a certified, uncirculated 19th-century gold coin left to my daughter by her late father. Here is the official appraisal certificate valuing it at eighteen thousand, five hundred dollars. And here..."
She tapped the screen again, playing the crystal-clear 4K video of Brenda smashing the unicorn and shoving the velvet pouch into her pocket.
"...is the high-definition security footage of her stealing it."
