No confident blazer.
No microphone.
Just a woman sitting quietly beside her attorney.
Nick testified first.
His voice was steady.
He described the truck.
The men.
The brick.
His son.
Allison testified afterward.
She didn't cry.
She didn't exaggerate.
She simply told the truth.
"The worst part wasn't only what happened," she said.
"It was knowing they believed they had the right to do it."
The prosecution presented financial records.
Messages.
Audio recordings.
Photographs.
Evidence of tactical equipment.
Evidence of coordinated enforcement.

The case was no longer about neighborhood rules.
It was about power.

The Verdict
The jury deliberated for less than two hours.
When they returned, the courtroom became silent.
