Fatal Attraction

Chapter 37

Brice POV
I sigh at the Good luck text I got from the crew since they couldn't miss school again today. I shut my phone off as the judge walks in and we all stand.

"You may be seated and the case may begin" He sighs; taking his seat

I look over at the monster who just has a blank expression. He sits uncomfortably in his orange jail outfit.

"Now yesterday the defendants were sent away to go find evidence. Did we find any?" The judge asks; peering over his small glasses and our lawyer turns to look at me and my sisters as we nod.

"Yes we uh have some pictures here of the type of environment we lived in and here are actually some shirts that reek of drugs and alcohol from him." Blessing states as Emma takes them all out of a bag.

I hand the security guard the camera with pictures as he hooks it up to the projector which then displays the nasty filth of a place we used to call our home. The jury and the crowd make disgusted noises as picture after picture is shown of mold, beer bottles, and cigars everywhere.

The judge moves in his seat uncomfortably; almost like he has to take a shit; as he glances as the picture and then at my father.

"Ok so its given that you girls were not raised in a proper..eh hem...sanitary home." The judge states as a dirty condom appears on the screen with two fingers making a piece sign in the back ground...Justin >:/

"No theses girls were not and this man here surrounded them with drugs, alcohol, and who knows what else." Our lawyer states standing up and we hear our father chuckle as all attention goes to him.

"These girls dont know what the hell they're talking about. I gave them a roof over their heads and food to eat and rules to abide by and how do they repay me.....by framing me for rape-"

"No one fucking framed you. Sure you provided us with a roof over our heads but we were the ones paying to keep it there and sure you gave us food but once we could walk we were the ones making and buying it our damn selves" Emma snaps as mom tries to calm her down.

Ben chuckles; shaking his head.

"Yea and your only so called rule was to always make sure you had some fucking beer in your damn fridge." I snap

"ORDER ORDER" The judge yells

Once we are settled down he looks at Ben, "I understand that you have some evidence that you would like to share"

"Of course" He smirks as he bends down to get a bag but winces.

"Are you ok?" The judge asks

"Yea of course I am" Ben assures

He places the bag on the table as we look at him in wonder as to what he could possibly have that could change his fate. He pulls out the dreaded pieces of clothing that we haven't worn in at least two months and the crowd gasps. I look around and they have an even more disgusted look than when they saw the pictures of the house.

"What are...those?" The judge asks appalled.

"These are some pieces if lingerie that Brice, Emma, and Blessing purchased when they eh hem wanted me to have some fun with them-"

"Objection your honor....theres no proof that those are even theirs." Our lawyer states standing up.

"But they are. Here are the receipts"Ben says handing them over to the security guard who takes it to the judge.

He looks it over before peering over his glasses at us and nodding.

"He made us purchase those! We would never buy something like that ourselves!" I sneer

Ben chuckles before putting the articles of clothing back in the bag and bending down to put it on the floor. He winces yet again as he stand up straight.

"Are you sure that you're ok Mr. Ben?" The judge asks

Ben sighs before lifting up his orange shirt ; revealing a deep stab wound on his side with dried blood and little bits of dead and dried skin surrounding it. The crowd gasps and we jump at the disgusting sight.

"Please cover that up RIGHT NOW!" The judge demands as Ben does so.

"You see your honor. Yesterday I was at the house looking for evidence and the girls appeared there out of no where....I was gonna leave peacefully but then Emma and Brice held me back and then Blessing stabbed me...I pleaded for them to let me be but they wanted to hurt me...if it wasn't for a call to the police by a near by neighbor..I wouldn't be here...cause they would have tried to kill their own dad." He explains as some "tears" fall down his dry ass cheeks.

"YOUR NOT THEIR DAD...LIAR..FUCKING PIT BULL LOOKIN PIECE OF SHIT" Mark yells and we look at him in shock as mom pulls him to sit down and calm him down.

"ORDER ORDER IN THIS DAMN COURT" The judge snaps.

We face Ben again and the judge shakes his head as he rubs his temples, "Ive never seen a family like this...Ok...the jury and I have come to a decision"

He takes a paper from the security guard who took it from the jury and sighs before looking up at everyone.

"The jury and I find Ben Edison Jeffries...Innocent of Rape and abuse of his children. Case dismissed"
