Chapter 16 - The investor side letter

The $6 million side letter was different.
Investor:
Halberd Family Office.
Its principal, Warren Halberd, testified that Octavia told him personally:
“Victor has formalized Julian as the male-line successor.”
He asked for confirmation.
Octavia sent the false memorandum.
Halberd relied on it when approving the investment and performance-fee structure.

The government now had:
False document.
Her transmission.
Specific representation.
Investor reliance.
Money.
