Chapter 8 - My Mother Was Suddenly Arrested—and the Police Claimed They Had Proof She Stole From CrestwoodThe arrest happened at six in the morning.

Six officers entered our apartment.
Mom was accused of stealing confidential school records.
They had photographs.
Security footage.
A fingerprint report.
Everything looked real.
Mom was handcuffed.
I screamed.
“No!”
One officer tried to calm me.
“Your mother will have a hearing.”
I watched them take her away.
Then I noticed something.
The timestamp on the security footage.
It was wrong.
The video showed Mom entering the school at 11:42 p.m.
But that night, she had been home.
I remembered because we had watched a movie together.
I found the receipt from the streaming service.
11:17 p.m.
I also found something else.
A reflection in the security footage.
A man standing behind the camera.
It wasn't Mom.
It was someone wearing Victor Hale's security uniform.

The evidence had been manufactured.
And now I knew the person who had framed her.
