A Guilty Verdict

Chapter 1 "Getting Started"

"Okay, Jacob I have a task for you to do today." 

"Yes Mr. White, what do you want to help with today. Is it evidence help? Do you have paperwork to do? I can help you with whatever you want." I said. 

I'm Jacob Dentor, a prosecutor. I currently work under Daniel White, who is the Head Prosecutor in the area. While I haven't been the prosecutor for a case yet, I've still been helping Mr. White with his cases.

"Jacob I have something else I want to do, which you have never done before. There is this case that I have to do today, but we just got a call in about another case that happened just last night. I was originally going to give it to one of the other prosecutors but a few of our other leading prosecutors are in the middle of a case right now. So if you can see where I am getting at with this." Mr. White said this all while looking away from me, picking up a bunch of different papers and putting them into a folder.

He then handed the folder to me. "Jacob I want you to take this case. If you read the folder you can see all of the details I've written down so far on the case which should get you started."

"Oh thank you very much, Mr. White! I'll get right to work!" I claimed happily immediately cracking open the folder to look through the papers. 

"I have to go and deal with a murder case that I was assigned to today. I will talk to you later to go through everything with you and see if you did everything correctly," Mr. White said and headed out the door.

"Okay, Mr. White thank you!" I yelled after him.

The only reason that I work under Mr. White is because of how well I did throughout law school and my score on the bar. Even though I haven't been the prosecutor for a single trial yet, people still believe that I will likely become the next Head Prosecutor.

"Okay so there was a robbery at Triple T. Tec last night and the suspect is Zack Newberry, who is the Chief of Technology at Triple T. Tec's biggest competitors, Crimson Corp. So I should probably start by heading to Crimson Corp and talking tooooooooo..." I said to myself while looking at the folder and looking for the name of the detective I'll be working with. "Amora Kemp! Oh yeah, I know her Mr. White has worked with her before!" I exclaimed then left the Prosecutor's office to go to Triple T. Tec's main building.

I drove up to the huge office building.

There were a few police cars parked in front of the building, but other than that most of the parking spots were empty so I could park closer to the building. 

I walked up to the building and was immediately stopped by the police outside of the glass doors.

"Stop there! Who are you and what is your business here?" The first officer asked and held his hand forward to stop me.

"I'm Jacob Dentor sir, and I am the prosecutor for this case I came to speak with Amora Kemp," I said firmly.

"I'm sorry Mr. Dentor, but Amora Kemp isn't here are you sure this is your case?" The second officer looked at me as if he thought maybe I had stolen something.

"No, no, no this is his case there was just a change in detectives that is all." Said a brown haired detective wearing all black.

"Oh okay Mr. Mcclain, sorry for the inconvenience." The second officer said and both officers backed away.

"Hello, I'm Oliver Mcclain, Ms. Kemp sadly couldn't be here today because she has to be at a murder trial with Mr. White." Mr. Mcclain said as he held out his hand.
