Anticipation

9:00 AM- TWO DAYS LATER- COURTHOUSE
 

We all stood in the hallway of the courthouse... Ms. Yvette addressed us.

''Don't Be Afraid.. You've all grown into fine attorneys and you've all prepared for this. I've watched you..I'm proud of you..." she said.

"I'm ready Ms. Yvette." I said.

"I am too!"said Bee Bee.

''I think we can win this case in the preliminaries." said Sofia.

"That would be super." said Samantha.

"I do too! Lt. Tragg doesn't even try to bring in a good case lately...They're getting weaker and weaker."said Kahlil.

"That's because of his insane desire to be on Television with a quick arrest that makes him look like a hero." said Jade.

"Heyyyy guys...Sorry I'm a little late."said our client, Attorney Emma Stephens..

who brought us all coffees to make up for it..

"I don't know how you take it...So I brought Creamers and Sugars in  seperate bags." she said and passed them to us...

Special Prosecutor Chris Copeland walked in just then..

"Welllll hello Yvette... I haven't seen you since you graduated...but I've kept up with you...You've done well for  yourself.. Made Partner, Got married, bought a home...Good Job." she said and hugged Yvette..

"Hello Mrs. Copeland." said Yvette.

"That's Ms. Copeland...Victor died in a car accident about seven years ago...I'm a widower now!" she said.

''AWWWWWWWW So Sorry to hear that....I hear you have a successful practice of your own now...Do you still teach?" asked Yvette.

"Oh Yes, at Penn, Temple and Middleton....I lecture every now and then...I don't know why I took this thankless assignment...Guess I was bored.....Oh well... I'll see you inside, See what you've learned..." she said and smiled..

Tate Stephens was waiting for her to go...He walked up to us...He was not pleased.

"I don't appreciate you subpoenaing me..." he said coldly...

"Most People don't appreciate it!" said Yvette with absolutely no fear or intimidation....

"I was practicing law when you were trying on your first training bra. I still know a lot of people , Screwing with me could affect your career and the careers of your young associates. Think about that, they're still very young, just starting their careers." he said slyly.

''Are you threatening me? I know people too! "said Yvette again without any sense of fear or intimidation.

"AND YOU....YOU DISGUST ME!" he said ,turning his attention to his ex wife.

"I wasn't disgusting all those nights you woke me up  at midnight and after with your calls ,begging me to let you come over and spend the night was I?" said Emma.

"OHHHHHHHHHHH! OUUUUUUUUUUU!" he moaned and angrily stomped his foot and walked away.. He was unable to frighten or intimidate anybody. He did what all bullies do when faced with circumstances like that. He retreated.

"Looks like somebody is a little hot under the collar." I said.

"He obviously didn't get what he wanted from either woman."said Bee Bee.

"He thrives off of fear and intimidation...He always has."said Samantha.

"Well that's not gonna happen here."said Kahlil.

"Aye Mios Dios, look who's coming."said Sofia.

"One Pest after another."said Jade.

Lt. Tragg was walking our way...

"I'm not doing this this morning...Come on guys, into the courtroom."said Yvette.

We had all finished our coffee's..We tossed our cups in the waste basket and went inside the courtroom and sat at our tables..

As it turns out, the Judge was late...

Judge Newton Cowley...

"Oh Goddddd Newt Cowley, I couldn't ask for a worse Judge.."said Yvette...

"I remember that old horn dog.."said Emma Stephens...

"It could work in our favor Ma, Between Ms. Yvette and me with our  cleavage and you with that Micro-Mini skirt showing all those legs...and Bee Bee and Sofia here with short skirts and cleavage, we may keep his mind off of the actual case and his libido high."said Samantha.

''She's learning the game huh?" laughed Bee Bee.

''Yes indeed!"laughed Sofia.

We did exude a lot of lusciousness at our table. Me and Kahlil were the only males. We noticed how beautiful and sexy our client and all of our associates  were.. I simply smiled and shook my head.

So did Kahlil.

''What are you guys smiling about so?" asked Ms. Jade, smiling.

We may have been the only ones smiling..

Tate Stephens was certainly not happy...he was livid...

Bert Vandenberg ,who prided himself on being as secret and behind the scenes as possible was once again exposed...He had started not to take Tate Stephens on as a client...

Lt. Tragg was not happy.... Special Prosecutor Christine Copeland had complained bitterly about his police work and made no secret that she was less than enthusiastic about the case he had given her...A case he thought was a slam dunk.

Special Prosecutor Christine Copeland was certainly not happy..She  had complained bitterly about Lt. Tragg about his unco-operativeness, about his police work in general to anyone who would listen in the D.A.'s office.  They knew all too well . She made no secret that she was less than enthusiastic about the case he had given her. She had told him to find some more witnesses and new evidence...He did find a few more witnesses, but they were inconsequential and the little bit of new evidence he did scrape up was basically useless. She had dealt with inept detectives before , but none as inept as Lt. Tragg.

This was going to be quite a case.

II-

FOUR DAYS LATER-

Ms. Yvette once told us that Trials are like Chess Matches...with both sides only releasing so much information at a time , testing the other side to see what moves they are going to make..

Christine Copeland was brilliant and considering what she was saddled with ,she did exceptionally well..  She was no walk in the park...She anticipated a lot of our moves...Showing us what a brilliant and well prepared attorney can do with a mess.  A messy case like she had.

Sofia and I questioned a lot of her witnesses on cross with telling questions...Questions that made one doubt they had really witnessed or heard anything. This hurt the Prosecution's case a lot.

Ms. Copeland's objections were what we expected.....

Bee Bee and Kahlil checkmated her often, citing laws and predicates and like cases....Again hurting the prosecution's case and frustrating  her...

Judge Cowley was forced to rule in our favor a lot... He also was forced to keep his eyes on Bee Bee and Sofia's shapely legs, hips and bodacious bodies...

Both women smiled as much as possible and were ultra polite..

which titillated the Judge.

Kahlil and I continued to hammer away at witnesses, who were the least bit shaky or whose testimony veered the slightest bit from their signed affadavits or deposition statements...We had read them well.

This wasn't lost on Chris Copeland. This left her frustrated and at times a little perturbed, but at the end of the fourth day she had to smile and bow to Ms. Yvette, her student..

"She has taught these young ones quite well." she found herself admitting...

Ms. Yvette had sat back, Not arguing at all, but letting the four of us carry the weight... A tear formed in her eyes...

"I'm so proud of them....The four of them were just raw law school graduates who had just passed the bar when I first met them and look at them now...They are just fantastic." she whispered to Jade.

"They had a good teacher." said Jade.

"Those four kids of yours are the truth...They are more than holding their own with Christine and she's been practicing before these kids graduated from grade school....They should make you very proud Yvette...I hope my daughter is learning from them." said Emma , who seemed so relaxed with us...You'd never think she was on trial for her life.

On this final day of the prosecution's preliminary hearing....Christine Copeland repeated Lt. Tragg's pornographic fever dream of a story that...Emma Stephens, enraged when she discovered her daughter was sleeping with the same man she had been sleeping with went to the Davis condo with a gun she had stolen a few days earlier, charmed and seduced and gunned down Blanton Davis,

his identical twin brother, thinking it was Blake Davis... She cringed when she made this argument..

I stared at her.... 

She didn't believe that....but it was all she had....

"Your Honor...I close my preliminary argument and ask that Ms. Stephens be held over for trial on a charge of first degree murder."said Christine Copeland.

All of us ,Ms. Yvette, Samantha, Kahlil, Bee Bee, Myself, Jade and Emma all sat there smiling...We knew Christine could not sell it...and we knew that even she thought this whole theory was Ludicrous.

What's more she knew that we knew it....We had subpoenaed two witnesses..She now knew we had another move to make and she couldn't anticipate it...She looked at Lt. Tragg and wanted to slap him silly... 

He sat there looking so sure of himself...smiling confidently.

We thought back to the crime scene itself-

Lt. Tragg looked at the body...

"WOW!! You guys are dead ringers......Nothing was stolen...Nothing disrupted...This was a hit and I think the target was you Mr. Davis..." said Lt. Tragg." Where were you last night?" asked Lt. Tragg.

"I was out to dinner with some colleagues.....We were at The Mermaid Crab Tavern for dinner and drinks..Then we went to Josie's to hear some cool jazz....Then I stopped by a friend's apartment, Attorney Emma Stephens, but she wasn't in...and then I stopped by another young lady's apartment and she wasn't in either and so I came home and found my brother lying in the middle of the floor and the door ajar... Oh and there is something missing...I own a .40 caliber pistol. It's missing." said Blake.

"The victim was killed by two shots from a .40 caliber...we found the spent slugs Lieutenant." said a crime scene investigator.

"Your Brother obviously knew his killer, he let this person in...I'm guessing it was an attractive female, she found the gun and shot him and then left."surmised Lt. Tragg.

"How did you come to that conclusion?  His brother wasn't from here anymore, Hadn't lived here in years.....He didn't know anybody here...Who would he have just let in like that and if it was a woman???...Why would she be allowed to roam the house like that and how would she know he had a gun here?" asked Jade... All good questions.

Yvette cautioned Jade, not to say anymore.

Hazel smiled wryly....Good for Jade, she thought... Things between her and Lt. Tragg were as Frosty as could be...She said nothing to him at all..

"I AM THE DETECTIVE HERE UNDERSTAND?? I DON'T CARE THAT YOU USED TO BE A HOMICIDE DETECTIVE IN TOKYO!!!....I AM THE HOMICIDE DETECTIVE HERE AND NOW!! AND I MAKE THE CALL.. " snarled Lt. Tragg..

Yvette's husband, Gary, now an investigator for the D.A.'s Office, once a Homicide Detective himself showed Lt. Tragg some wax shavings found by the door.

"See this?  Wax shavings...I've seen it before..I think the killer duplicated the keys with a three dimensional printer.somehow .. They let themselves in and from the angle of the shooting and where the body fell..They already had the gun...They didn't root around for it  They came in and shot and left... Not likely they would have left 2 Large on the dresser if they had been rooting around." said Gary.

"You guys should bag this and tag it." he said to the CSI men.

They quickly did what Gary said. Lt. Tragg was furious and knocked the bag of shavings on the floor out of the man's hand.

Talking to Lt. Tragg was like speaking to a brick wall...

"WHO IS GIVING ORDERS AROUND HERE????I AM THE CASE DETECTIVE HERE UNDERSTAND?? I DON'T CARE THAT YOU USED TO BE A HOMICIDE DETECTIVE EITHER GARY....I AM THE HOMICIDE DETECTIVE NOW!! AND I MAKE THE CALL.. I'M GOING WITH MY THEORY THAT A SEXY WOMAN CAME IN HERE AND FOUND HIS GUN AND SHOT HIM!!! " snarled Lt. Tragg.

Hazel sighed and walked away..... He really was the absolute dumbest cop in the city she thought to herself.

"DR BAYLOR, HAVE YOU GOT SOMETHING TO SAY? "asked Lt. Tragg.

"You don't want to hear what I have to say."said Hazel ,turning away from him...Her hatred for the man now reaching a critical point.

"Can we release the body?"asked Dr. Marcy Martin..

"Yeah, yeah, get those Autopsy Reports to me, ASAP!" he said.

The Body of Blanton Davis, Actor, Identical twin brother of Blake Davis was put in a white body bag and toted out...

"Mrs. Jones-Lockwood... Do you have a defense to put on or would you rather just go to trial?" asked Judge Newton Cowley, who couldn't help himself from staring at her cleavage..

"I do have a defense your honor....Due to the lateness of the hour...I would like to begin my defense tomorrow morning." said Ms. Yvette.

"Excellent Idea...I'll see everyone tomorrow at 10:00 Am sharp...be on time and be ready for trial, court dismissed." he said and banged his gavel.

Christine Copeland was exhausted...She had never been so unsure, so tested in her life. She had always out prepared and surprised whatever attorney she was up against...It had been a long time since she had actually lost a case or even had a hung jury... Yet these four young attorneys, who were probably in elementary school when she was passing the bar had out prepared her, had not been rattled by anything and had battled her to a standstill like an attorney who had been practicing for decades...and she hadn't even faced her prize student yet... She needed a drink. She left the courtroom not saying a word...

me, Bee Bee, Samantha, our client, Emma, Sofia, Kahlil and Ms. Jade all walked out of the courtroom...

Ms. Yvette ran right into an angry and imposing Tate Stephens..

"Your young bucs handled themselves well enough....I expected the Prosecution to do a lot better considering her wealth of experience...Look, maybe uh you and me, we could work something out...I find you extremely attractive...How about dinner, some drinks, a quiet civil conversation...huh? To hell with this case...Yvette, I think if we talked, you and I and you really got to understand me, we could have a really nice friendship, huh, how about it??.. Neither you nor I have a dog in this fight... I could do a lot for you....I know you've made partner...but I could turn you on to much bigger things...and I'm not just talking about my penis.HEH HEH HEH!!!" he asked her softly, putting his arm around her..."Despite all of this...I like you Yvette....." he said. 

His trousers were standing out like a circus tent....He wasn't trying to hide that she had him very aroused.

"I don't think my husband would like any of that!..No thank you!"said Ms. Yvette, without a hint of a smile..She removed his arm. She walked away..She found him disgusting and his attempt at seducing her, lame.

Tate Stephens was livid...He kicked the metal waste basket until it dented. He had met somebody he couldn't intimidate or bully or seduce with a sly promise of a career boost and money. He jumped up and down like a child!  "OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!" he screamed angrily.

III-

AQUA BAR was jumping tonight.....Everybody was in here tonight...We all felt like dancing and having a cold one..

They had two D.J.'s...

Bee Bee, Me, Sofia, Kahlil, Samantha, Beverly, Nelson, Josie, Paris, Bresha, Tony, Jazzy,Dabnis, Kayla, Ray ,Jessica and Chip were all here..

"I feel good ..I feel like we can win this trial tomorrow." said Bee Bee.

"We all have been winning a lot of trials in the prelims lately....Ms. Olivia and her team too!" I said.

"That's because Lt. Traggs cases are weaker and weaker.."said Sofia.

"He's dangerous..He'll arrest anybody without thinking..won't check alibi's..."said Kahlil.

"Well in all fairness...My Mom doesn't have a good one..She was in her apartment all night with no witnesses.."said Samantha, "But she's no killer." she added..

We all laughed.

"She could have been with Lt. Tragg and he still would have charged her."said Beverly...

"He's dangerous.. I hope I'm never around anybody even remotely involved in a murder."said Nelson..

"Same here. You remember, he did arrest me once...."said Josie..

"I remember..."said Paris.,

"I'm with Nelson...I don't even want to remotely know anybody involved with a murder with him around.. He'd love to arrest and charge any one of us." said Bresha.

"I know that's the truth as much as Olivia and Ms. Yvette's team embarrasses the hell out of him. Picking his cases apart and all."said Tony...

''He's so unhinged lately.. You can't go anywhere he is and enjoy yourself...He's got to come around and try to trigger you into some type of argument."said Jazzy...

"Even when you ignore him, he still hangs around..He's a pest."said Dabnis..

"He was asked if he might like transferring to auto theft..."laughed Kayla.

"Sheeeeeeeet, they don't want him!" said Ray...

"He might make a good Traffic Cop!"said Jessica.

"Yeah, I could see him doing that." laughed Chip as we all went to the bar after dancing to order more drinks.

Tonight , even the "Old heads" were here...Our Client, Emma., who hadn't been out drinking and dancing in a minute....She had been keeping a low profile,like we had asked.. Tonight however ,she was with us..and safe.. Ms. Yvette, Gary, Ms. Jade, Danny, Ms. Virginia, Jetty,Ms. Olivia, Donnie Ray, and Ms. Alfreda and Rockland had staked out some booths in the back and were drinking and talking and watching us all dance.. From Line Dancing to individual dancing... It was a great night.. we all felt loose and happy.

"Ohhhhhh this feels so good Vettie, I haven't been out dancing or drinking in a minute ..Since before this mess started."said Emma.

"You're with us tonight..You're safe." said Yvette...

"And you're staying in our extra room...I'll take you back to your hotel after the hearing tomorrow." said  Gary.

"I think we can wrap this up tomorrow."said Jade.

"I was in court yesterday...I think you can too!" said Danny...

Virginia and Jetty were kissing passionately, oblivious to the conversations swirling around them...

''Ohhh this is soo nice, It's been a minute since we were in here husband.." said Olivia.

''Yeah it has..."said Donnie Ray..

Rockland and Alfreda, newlyweds, were kissing passionately...

We were all seated in the same general area and had plenty of Tacos, Beers and Martinis..

Across town at CURLEYS BAR- Lt. Tragg was certain that we'd all be in tonight...It was Couples Night with drink specials...We started to go there...but decided on Aqua Bar....We didn't need to spar with him...

"Bert...What did they subpoena you for?" asked Lt. Tragg.

''Artie I bugged that guy Blake Davis's house....I bugged Emma Stephens house and under the direction of my client....I sent photos to both Emma Stephens and her daughter Samantha Stephens.... Blake Davis was banging both of them.. My client figured it would drive his ex-wife nuts and in a rage she'd blow Blake Davis away...only it went sideways...and his twin brother, who nobody knew was there at the time was shot and killed....I believe my client manipulated the situation...My client is Tate Stephens..He was also subpoenaed." said Bert.

"Well whether he manipulated the situation or not...SHE PULLED THE TRIGGER AND SHE ALONE IS GUILTY!!" said Lt. Tragg.... "Relax...you got nothin to worry about...This prosecutor is good...She's won 245 cases...Hasn't lost in years....She might not  even let Yvette question you,. You bein a Private Dick and all , you have certain protections."said Lt. Tragg.

"Artie, I'm not a lawyer...It's not the same..." said Bert Vandenberg, who looked sick. He dropped a few dollars on the table and got up...

"See ya Around Artie...I guess, tomorrow in court." he said.

Lt. Tragg sat down next to her...

"I've got some news for you....Those lurid photos that were anonymously delivered to Emma Stephens and Samantha Stephens and myself  of each of them making love with Blake Davis was taken by a P.I.,

just like you suspected...Bert Vandenberg....Somehow or other, Yvette and her team have discovered that and they subpoenaed him...His client was Tate Stephens, her ex husband... He hired him to shadow both of them...When he discovered that they were both sleeping with the same man...He sent photos to both women, knowing that one of them, his wife would go ballistic, go nuts...and blow Blake Davis away....Only she shot his twin brother, who nobody knew was staying there... Stephens manipulated the situation..Maybe I can charge him with something later...but she and she alone murdered Davis."said Lt. Tragg.

"Hmmmmmmmmm , this is coming a little late, but good work Lieutenant....See what you can do when you try?" said Chris Copeland...

IV-

FRIDAY MORNING-

We all looked refreshed and rejuvenated....

Yvette called Bert Vandenberg, the Private Investigator...

He was sworn in....

Before Yvette could question him Chris Copeland Objected, stating an Old Law from the 1940's that protected Private Investigators..

Samantha sited a new law from 1990 that overturned that law...right here in Pennsylvania.

Bee Bee cited a law that said a Private Investigator could be questioned if he or his client is believed to have been involved in a Capital Crime, in this case, Murder.

Christine was beyond livid at this point...These little shits were besting her at her own game..They had prepared and anticipated her every move and executed well. She thought.

"You are a Private Investigator and before that you were an FBI Special Agent correct?" asked Yvette.

"Yes." he answered.

''Have you ever been in the residences of Emma Stephens, Attorney at law and Blake Davis. Attorney at law? On behalf of a client?" Yvette asked.

"I'm going to exercise my uh 5th amendment right against self incrimination..." he stated.

Kahlil poured a bag of 28 Micro Listening devices on the table...

"We traced the serial numbers on these and cross referenced them with your company credit card....It shows you ordered all of these devices personally..." He said..

"These are photos of our investigator, Jade Lee-Ho at both residences, finding these devices..

Your client had you snap photos of Ms. Stephens being intimate with Blake Davis, brother of the deceased and Ms. Stephens daughter also being intimate with Mr. Davis... You also mailed these to Emma Stephens, Samantha Stephens and Lt. Tragg as instructed.  A DNA sample of your saliva was taken off of two of the three envelopes ,so we know as a fact it was you."said Sofia.

"Mr. Vandenberg, you own a Three Dimensional Printer don't you? In fact ,you don't have to answer..We know you do...My Investigator was by your office and snapped a photo of it with a micro camera of her own."I said.

Showing him the printer and the wax keys....

"These Keys gave you access to both residences and allowed you to enter and place these devices..We found these wax shavings at both residences outside the door... It's a dead giveaway.... Here is a photo of the dead, Blanton Davis... Now I'm not saying it was you, but I think your client had access to these residences too....Who is your client?" asked Ms. Yvette.

Chris Copeland Objected stating that Private Investigators had the same Client privilege that Attorneys enjoyed..

Bee Bee argued, not when a Capital Crime may have been committed...

Judge Newton Cowley agreed...

"Tate Stephens.....Tate Stephens was my client....He hired me to watch The former Mrs. Stephens and her daughter and then later Blake Davis, when he found out he was having sexual relations with both." said Bert Vandenberg.....He was as red as a beet and furious!

"No further questions, I now call Mr. Tate Stephens.." said Yvette.

He made no secret of his total disdain now for Ms. Yvette and Bert Vandenberg as well, ....Ms. Yvette had subpoenaed him and had turned down his sexual advances and Bert had folded like a tent under questioning.

"We know now that you hired Mr. Vanderberg to shadow your ex-wife and your step-daughter and Mr. Davis...I have one question to ask you....Did you enter Mr. Davis's condo and steal his gun and then come back later and shoot his brother thinking he was Blake Davis... DID YOU?? I remind you, there is a severe penalty for perjury!" said Ms. Yvette.

He laughed.. "You're Bat shit crazy....I've never been in Blake Davis's condo..." he said.,

"Everybody that knows you ,knows you like to drink Orange Juice.... This Half drank carton was in Blake Davis's refrigerator... He had purchased it before he left, but hadn't opened it... DNA, matching you was found on the spout and your fingerprints are on the carton...You couldn't resist drinking half of his carton of Orange Juice." said Ms. Yvette.

"You've got no proof of this. I think your bra is on a little too tight" he said raffishly and laughed.

"Yes Counselor, this sounds like Speculation....How do you know this?" asked Chris Copeland.

Ms. Yvette smiled and produced a glass , taken from Sam Mother's diner.

"Recognize this glass Mr. Stephens?  It's one of three you were swigging orange juice from in Sam Mother's Diner last week..."said Ms. Yvette.

"We know this because we got your DNA and prints off of all three of the three glasses of Orange Juice , you were drinking in Sam Mother's restaurant.....They match your prints and DNA from this carton, taken from Blake Davis's  condo. Your DNA and prints have no business being in Blake Davis's condo at all... You were there, you stole his gun and you came back and shot who you thought was him, isn't that right Mr. Stephens?" asked Yvette.

He was quiet for a minute....Then he arrogantly said.  "YES....I SHOT HIM!!!!!.....YOU HAPPY NOW?" he said defiantly....He was caught and he knew it!

The entire courtroom gasped.

"Baillifs...Take this man into custody."said Judge Cowley....

Tate Stephens was handcuffed immediately and walked out of the courtroom....

''The People move to drop all charges against Emma Stephens."said Christine Copeland, shaking her head in disbelief...

"So Moved...Ms. Stephens, you are free to  go."said Judge Cowley...

"YVETTE!! THANK YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU, YOU GUYS ARE THE TRUTH!!!!" said a very happy Emma Stephens..

''All in a day or in this case, a week's work."said Ms. Yvette. We had won in the preliminary hearing. She wouldn't have to face a trial. She hugged Emma.

"Thank You guys for saving my mommy!"said Samantha Stephens...

"You helped...You did good in there." said Sofia.

"Not Bad, Not Bad at all for a newly minted attorney."I said...

''We wish you much success. "said Bee Bee.

''Who knows..Maybe one day we'll see each other in a litigation."said Kahlil.

Jade had done an excellent investigation...She simply smiled and bowed...

"YOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU!!! YOUUUUUUUUUUU IMBECILE!!!.....Your half baked Pornographic fever dream of a theory was all wrong...I knew it all along and they proved it..You could definitely learn a thing or two from Yvette's investigator.,Jade!"said Chris Copeland to Lt. Tragg. She hadn't exactly lost, but she hadn't won either....

"MAYBE YOU COULD LEARN A THING OR TWO FROM YVETTE'S SNOT NOSED KIDS...THEY SURE OWNED YOU IN COURT DIDN'T THEY?" snarled Lt. Tragg, angrilly stomping his foot and exiting the courthouse...

'''Yvette, wonderfully executed....Never in my wildest dreams did I imagine I'd be bested by one of my students and HER STUDENTS!...Good Job.... I think I've had enough trial work...I'm going to stick with teaching and out of courtroom litigation like I'd been doing."said Christine, hugging Yvette.

"Oh Noooooo, you just had a poorly investigated case that's all...Not your fault..All that I am, All that I teach these kids is what you taught me and Olivia so many years ago Ms. Copeland." said Yvette.

"I'm going to stop by and see Olivia." said Christine.

"You should...She'd love to see you!" said Yvette.

"I'm glad we didn't have to go to trial." I said.

"Me too!"said Bee Bee ,hugging me.

"I'm glad for Lt. Tragg...His sloppy investigations make it easier for us to defend people."said Sofia, laughing.

"You do have a point."said Kahlil.

Jade threw me the keys..."You can drive...Grab Ms. Yvette, Let's go home." said Jade.

We all got in the SUV and pulled off.. Headed Home.

EPILOUGE-

Tate Stephens was convicted of General Murder and sentenced to 30 Years, with no chance for parole for at least 15 years.....It was far less than he deserved..

Samantha Stephens went on to pass the Bar in New York/New Jersey/Deleware and Maryland...She became an Associate Attorney at her mother's firm..She began a relationship with another young attorney she met during a litigation.

Samantha's hiring,brought her mother's total staff to 3 Attorneys and one Para-Legal....

Despite some misgivings....Emma Stephens and Blake Davis got married a few months later... Stranger love stories have been written.

Christine Copeland and District Attorney Garcetti wrote a scathing report about Lt. Tragg's less than stellar police work and investigating and submitted it to The Police Commissioner and The Deputy of Operations...

As a result...He was assigned to the Police Marine Unit for the next 90 Days.

.If you used a telescope and looked out the window of the building where we worked.. You could actually see him sitting on the boat, swigging his favorite Irish Whiskey..

Revenge was indeed sweet and a relief for all of us...

NIGHTFALL-

Ms. Yvette was at home..

She sat on the side of the bed in her red baby doll..

Gary smiled..

"Look at my girl, Defeated her teacher in court. My sexy boss lady.." he said.

"Ouuuuuuuuuuuuuu"laughed Yvette.. '' It was a team effort.  So come here, Let's me and you make this a team effort."she cooed.

She and Gary began kissing passionately...He ran his hands deep into her panties ,squeezing her buttocks.. 

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! YESSSSSSS, TEAM EFFORTS!" he moaned.

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM" she moaned..

She slipped off her Pink and Blue Panties....Gary was delirious by this point.

"OHHHHHHHHHHHH MYYYYYYYY VETTIE!" he said.

He lifted her up and long stroked her..

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU HUSBAND...OUUUUUUUUUUWEEEEEEE!" she moaned..

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH..OHHHHHHHHHH MY GODDDDDD!" he cried out..

"Ouuu Gary, what has gotten into you? Are you on something..??OUUUUUUUU!" Yvette moaned.

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!"moaned Gary.

"OHHHHHHHHHHHHHH GARYY!" moaned Yvette.

"UMMMMMMMMMMMMM VETTIE...I JUST LOVE YOU SOO MUCH BABY!" he moaned.

"MEOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOW!" she cooed.

She rode him slow and softly....

"OUUUUUUUUUU...OUUUUUUUUUUUU GIRRRRRRRRRRRL" Gary moaned.....

"OUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE!: squealed Yvette as she had an intense orgasm.....

NINE TO TEN HOURS of sweet almost non-stop lovemaking slipped by... They were both glad it was A Friday Night...

FOR DANYL!
