Chapter 9 - The Federal Convoy
Two heavy black SUVs with tinted windows and federal government plates pulled into the driveway, blocking the police cruisers.
Four federal agents in dark suits stepped out, showing their badges directly to Chief Miller and Mayor Kessler.
"Federal Bureau of Investigation," the lead agent announced sternly. "Mayor Kessler, you are being placed under federal custody for wire fraud, embezzlement, and public corruption."
