Chapter 919 Impossible to Get Out
“Ms. Quinnell, would you like to speak to the Lowe family’s lawyer?”
Instead of replying to her subordinate’s question, Wynter asked, “Have we received a copy of Dulcie Wilson’s autopsy report?”
Upon seeing her subordinate shake his head, Wynter’s eyes narrowed as she tightened her grip on the file.
“Go and check for the footage from the day of the incident and investigate how deeply the Lowe family is
involved in this case.
“Why is there no autopsy report? How many people are implicated? Give the list to the disciplinary
committee.
“It’s fine if the Lowe family wants to use underage laws to protect Wyatt. But we’re bringing every single person in the Lowe family in. And I have doubts about Dulcie’s cause of death.”
After a short pause, Wynter instructed, “Help me submit an application to reopen the case.”
Her subordinate looked shocked. “Ms Quinnell?”
“Go on. I want results in half an hour.” Wynter said firmly.
“Yes, Ms Quinnell ”
Meanwhile, the Lowe family’s defense lawyer, Hector Donovan, was feeling confident. He even planned to request Wyatt’s release on medical grounds, citing his poor health.
Hector stated confidently. “My client is a minor and cannot accurately distinguish right from wrong. He acknowledges his mistakes
“As his lawyer, I hope to reach out to the victim’s family as soon as possible. My client is prepared to offer compensation and an apology
“This matter doesn’t need to escalate to court as we prefer mediation. We are willing to meet any reasonable demands, as my client was indeed at fault”
Hector was adept at handling cases involving teenagers. Even though it was a case of suicide, there was no direct evidence linking his client to the victim’s death
Most of the bullying incidents were done by Tessa, who had acted more aggressively. Hence, framing the case as simple peer exclusion would greatly reduce the rest of their criminal charges.
Alfie agreed that a quick resolution was in everyone’s best interest.
The investigators gripped their pens tightly as they reviewed the evidence presented. A young girl had committed suicide, yet the Lowe family conveniently overlooked her plight
Instead, they focused on an incident a month prior, where Wyatt had bullied another student and subsequently compensated them. They even mentioned the school’s selection game.

The law often fell short when many people were involved, especially without solid proof that Wyatt was the instigator. The Lowe family was clearly trying to absolve him of responsibility.
Hector, dressed in a sharp suit, addressed one of the officers, Stout Powell, “We both understand that pursuing this case in court isn’t ideal for the victim’s family. My suggestions are also in their best interest.”
Stout grew more disheartened as he reviewed the evidence. Besides the few videos circulating online where Wyatt only made brief appearances, there was little proof of his involvement.
The physical acts of bullying, like pulling clothes and shoving in the bathroom, were carried out by the girls. Yet, allowing Wyatt to be released for medical reasons felt unjust.
“What’s the urgency for him to leave the country?” Stout asked.
Hector was prepared for his question. He presented medical records and explained, “My client needs to undergo medical examinations.
“As for the allegations online about him leaving the country after every incident, those are mere coincidences. The previous victims‘ families have forgiven him and signed agreements of forgiveness.”
Hector shifted the evidence toward Stout and said, “Please rest assured that we acknowledge our mistakes. My client will certainly amend his ways. May I now take my client for his medical appointment?”
