Chapter 11 - The Second Fire ReportInvestigators located original digital draft from Sam Grant’s old municipal backup.
Origin area:
West hallway electrical chase.
Contributing factor:
Recent unverified modification.
Portable heater mentioned only as alternative source.
Final report reversed emphasis.
Who requested change?
Insurance engineer.
Who hired engineer?
Insurer.
But emails showed my father’s attorney sent contractor documents directly.
One statement claimed west-wing electrical replacement completed and inspected.
Inspection certificate bore signature of city inspector Harold Price.
Price had retired.
Investigators contacted.
He said:
“I never inspected that building after renovation.”
Signature forged.
Now case was larger.
Grant had not committed fraud.
He had relied on forged inspection.
His regret remained, but legal responsibility shifted.
