Chapter 19 - Jason’s Defense

Jason’s lawyers attacked the drone footage.

Perspective.

Wind.

Possible accidental contact.

Then prosecutors produced his text:

She’s gone.

His attempt to activate financial authority.

His substituted document pages.

His history with wealthy women.

The defense changed.

Jason claimed Charles manipulated him.

Eleanor watched from home.

“He’s doing to Charles what he did to me.”

Grace nodded.

“Turning someone else’s weakness into his excuse.”

Jason’s prior schemes were admitted only where legally relevant.

Not character assassination.

Pattern evidence had limits.

The prosecutor built the case around the actual wedding.

Video.

Documents.

Messages.

Witnesses.

Motive.

No theatrical shortcuts necessary.

Truth was enough.
