Chapter 18 - The Indictment
Seven months after I found Chloe in kitchen, Fulton County prosecutors presented financial case.
Damian was indicted on charges related to:
Forgery.
Identity/document fraud.
Theft by deception.
Financial misrepresentation tied to loans and investments.
Coercive document use.
Separately, state prosecutors pursued battery-related charges based on physical incidents corroborated by witnesses and medical records.
Not every insult criminal.
Not every bad marriage chargeable.
The strongest assault count involved an incident one month before rescue.
Kitchen camera showed Damian grabbing Chloe’s arm and shoving her against storage-room door after she tried to leave.
No serious injury.
Clear force.
He had previously claimed bruises came from work.
Video disagreed.
Chloe watched once.
