The Million-Dollar Heart
Chapter 807
After a lengthy opening statement by the judge, silence was commanded with a gavel's thud. Jerry Perez, representing the plaintiff, was the first to speak.
Most of the evidence had been previously submitted, but they managed to scrape together something new. "Our witness, Tobin, grew up in a modest household. His mother worked the assembly line at a local factory, and his father was a construction worker. It's hard for me to believe that they had the means to bribe a distinguished teacher at a prestigious school."
"There's always a way to find money if you squeeze hard enough," retorted the defense. "Besides, it was Tobin himself who pointed fingers at Julian Littleton. Are you insinuating that Tobin perjured himself?" With the current public sentiment, Jerry knew winning against Kipling would be an uphill battle.
Even with a looming prison sentence for another matter, Kipling's defense attorney diligently countered Jerry's arguments.
Shaking his head, Jerry continued, "Our witness did indeed commit perjury, but under duress. Your Honor, here's a video recorded in desperation by our witness. It shows Kipling collaborating with local thugs, threatening Tobin's parents. Tobin's father was severely injured by them. Forced into a corner, Tobin, then only seventeen, had no choice."
This was a revelation Tobin had only recalled years later.
When his father was dragged into their house by Kipling's men, Tobin was fiddling with a phone he had found. In his panic, he accidentally started recording. Fear of retaliation kept him from going public initially.
It was only after Vivienne assured him and his parents of their safety that Tobin retrieved the old phone.
Years had passed, and the video was grainy, but its broadcast began to unravel the mystery that had plagued the Littleton family for years.
The sight of Tobin, crying and begging on his knees before Kipling, touched not only the jury but also viewers of the live stream.
