The room goes completely silent. Hayes stares at the badge in Reeves's hand. 4 Seconds of silence. Then he snatches it and examines it closely. Turn it over.
Check the photo. Checks Vanessa on the floor. Doesn't matter. Warrants valid for this address. Vanessa's voice cuts through the room.
The warrant is for Vanessa Coleman. I'm Vanessa Cole. Different person. You know this now. Continuing makes it deliberate.
We'll sort it downtown. On what grounds? You have no probable cause for me. The judge signed the warrant for this address. A warrant with false information is void.
Franks versus Delaware. Hayes's jaw tightens. You think you're smart? Citing cases in cuffs. Reeves steps closer.
Garrett. She's the DOJ. We need to call this in. I'm handling it. You're making it worse.
The other officers exchange glances. One speaks up. Maybe we should get a supervisor. Hayes wheels on him. I said I'm handling it.
Vanessa sees her opening. Officer Reeves is right. Call your supervisor. Verify my identity because right now you're committing federal civil rights violations. Hayes moves closer, looms over her.
Are you threatening me? I'm informing you of the law. He reaches for her laptop again. Vanessa moves between him and it, still handcuffed. That contains active federal investigations, confidential informant identities.
Touching it without authorization is a federal crime. Hayes shoves her hard. She crashes into the bookshelf. Her shoulder hits the corner. Pain explodes down her arm.
Books tumble. A framed photo of her father shatters on the floor. Blood runs from her split lip. Metallic taste fills her mouth. Outside, Antoine's Instagram stream hits 800 viewers.
Comments flood. Is that the prosecutor? This is illegal. Someone record this. Mrs.
Washington films through her window. Her hands shake. Time stamp reads 3:17 a. M. Hayes pulls out a small notebook from his pocket.
Vanessa watches through the pain. Her prosecutor brain cataloged everything. He's preparing to plant evidence. They came to destroy her investigation by destroying her credibility. What are you doing?
Her voice stays steady. Hayes ignores her. Walk toward the bedroom. Reeves blocks him. Garrett, stop.
Move. No, this is wrong. I said move. He pushes past her. Reeves pulls out her phone.
Texts fast. Desperate. The apartment looks destroyed. Couch shredded. Cabinets open.
Broken dishes. Spilled food. Photos torn from walls. One officer helps Vanessa sit against the wall. I'm sorry.
This isn't right. Then stop it. I can't. He's my supervisor. Antoine's stream hits 12200 viewers.
