The outrage

While Sylvester was in the asylum, being treated for his disorder, on the other side, emotions ran high as the hallowed halls of Judge Reynolds's office filled with the anger of grieving families. The furious members had gathered together. 

Margot Brooks's father, his face contorted with fury, pounded his fist on the judge's desk. "She was my daughter!" he bellowed, the raw grief palpable in his voice. "Five months have passed, and still, no justice! How is it that the murderer roams free while we suffer?"

Beside him, Sebastian Daniel's mother shook with fury, her eyes blazing as she confronted the judge. "Why the delay? Is it because he bribed you? Name your price, then! I'll pay double, triple if needed! All I want is to see that cold-blooded monster hang. He deserves no mercy!"
