Chapter 10 - The Corrupt Pharmacist and the Stolen Sedatives
By Monday morning, the final co-conspirator in Daniel’s network was brought to justice.
Federal agents raided a compounding veterinary pharmacy in Schaumburg, arresting fifty-two-year-old Gregory Vance—a former pharmaceutical sales rep who had supplied Daniel with the black-market Ketamine and surgical adhesives in exchange for fifty thousand dollars in cash.
Faced with twenty years in federal prison for conspiracy to distribute controlled substances resulting in severe bodily harm, Gregory Vance signed a complete confession within two hours of his arrest.
He handed over text message logs where Daniel explicitly detailed how he intended to keep Emily sedated while her arm developed compartment syndrome, ensuring that her confusion and disorientation would prevent her from seeking help.

There was no defense left on earth that could save Daniel Harris.
