Derek Armstrong’s Trial

Chapter 1
Derek Armstrong was getting tried for his part in Maria’s murder in 1990, Satsuki and Martin died before they could see the man who ruined their life got tried.

”All rise for the judge.” The man said.

Everyone sat down, Derek’s former victims, which included an Saudi girl named Abeer, who was now 17 with her father Abdul, a Chinese girl named Baozhai, who was now 19 who was with her mother Kaoyi, a blind boy named Alex, who was now 19, who attended the event with a helper, a Hindu boy named Baheet, who was now 21 and many others and his first victim, a mute girl named Mikaela, who was 5 years old when Derek unleashed a reign of terror on her family, she was now 25, and a Russian girl named Katya who was now 23.

”We are here today to decide Derek Armstrong’s verdict, this is Derek vs. the state of Florida, Derek, You have been tried for conspiracy to murder, second degree murder, and many other things, seemingly with impunity.” He said.

Alex knew Maria, the rest did not, but they had their stories to tell about him.

”Alex, Please come here.” The judge said.

With the help of his cane and his assistant Christy, She helped him sat down.

“Alex, Can you describe the court about what the defendant did?” The judge asked.

The blind man’s glazed over eyes looked at the remorseless man and made a look of disgust.

”I was 11 years old at the time, I was born blind, my mother taught me Braille, he told my mother that my blindness was attributed to abuse and drug use in the womb, so he wanted to take me away, His attacks on these people were disabilities, sexual orientation and even race and religion, That poor Maria girl.” He said.

”Objection!” Derek’s defendant shouted.

”Yes?” The judge said.

”Was this man even known he was being harassed by my client?” He asked.

”Yes, and I vividly remember my father forbidding me and my brothers from going down that street that he lived at.” Alex said.

”Sustained, Mr. Mollow, you are free to go back, Ms. Abeer, now it’s your turn.” The judge said.

Abeer wore a hijab, her father was more moderate and allowed his daughter to wear one, she and her father got on very well.

”Let’s go, Papa.” Abeer said as her father led her onto the chair.

”Can you tell the court what he did to your family?” The judge asked.

”Yes, He sent severed pig heads, Islamophobic notes, Threatened to take me away and convert me to Christianity, I don’t hate Christians, but that man I hate!” She said.

”Objection, How can Ms. Kaja remember something when she was toddler, was this witness even aware?” He said.

”Yes, my father told me all the notes, he took pictures of the evidence, I vividly remember my father forbidding me from going near Derek’s son Michael.” Abeer said.

Mikaela was next, she was born mute and when she was five, her life was total terror until she was eight years old, false accusations, threats and attempted kidnappings were almost apart of daily life,

Mikaela wrote down what she had to say on the whiteboard.

“Mikaela, Please tell the court what Derek did.” He said.

”YOUR HONOR, I WAS DEREK’S FIRST VICTIM, HE HARASSED MY POOR MOTHER, SHE WENT ALMOST INSANE FROM IT.” Mikaela wrote down and shown the court.

Mikey glared at Derek, Derek looked remorseless.

”HE SENT THREATENING MAIL, HE SAID MOM WAS THE RESULT BECAUSE SHE “DRINKS”, NOT TRUE, MOM NEVER DRANK.” Mikaela wrote down.

Mikaela’s father almost cried, his wife committed suicide when Mikaela was 12.

”HE CLAIMED THAT MY DADDY RAPED ME, ABUSED ME AND FORCED ME TO PERFORM SEX ACTS ON ANIMALS, MY DADDY NEVER DONE THESE.” Mikaela wrote down.

”Oh you fucking bitch.” Mikey whispered.

Mikaela felt tears ran down her face.

“HE SENT MY DADDY A CAT WITH A SLIT THROAT, IT WAS OUR CAT, WITH A MESSAGE THAT SAID “MUTE AND DUMB”.......I’M SORRY, I CAN’T SAY NO MORE.” Mikaela said.

”You’re free to go back, Mikaela.” The judge said.

The mute girl got off the stand and went back to her seat, hugging her father.

”Yuu Tachimi and Mikey Kimmings, uncle and grandfather of murdered girl Maria Tachimi, please come to the stand.” He commanded.

Yuu brushed his long hair out of his face as Mikey made his way to the stand

”Mikey, can you describe the defendant?” The judge asked.

”A fucking monster who claims to be a “Man of God”.” Mikey said.

”Can you tell the court what Mr. Armstrong did?” The judge asked.

”His daughter, bullied my granddaughter, Maria had rights too, She was a little different from other girls, so was her mother, Satsuki, now passed alongside husband Martin, He went after my family because of Satsuki’s less traditional parenting and my family’s tarot faith.” Mikey said.

The court stood in silence.

”Satsuki was a huge fan of the Japanese manga series, JoJo’s Bizarre Adventure, her brother who is with us sent her volumes every time there was new one.” Mikey said as he picked up Volume 13.

Mikey turned to Derek.

”You know what this is, Derek?, This is the last volume of the manga she read before she died, Yuu stills sends manga to the house, Even though I’m the only one there now, Satsuki, she was a little off, but I started to protect her despite me being a POW in the Pacific, for one simple reason, You pissed me off big time, You took the fact that Satsuki wasn‘t a Christian and started a reign of terorr when Maria was only little.” Mikey said.
