Melissa’s statement

Meanwhile, in another room, Melissa told her side of the story. She explained how she received the ring without knowing where it came from, how Steve’s deception had embroiled her in a bigger story than she had ever imagined. “I never suspected,” she stated in a firm voice, though tinged with sadness. Her testimony, coupled with irrefutable evidence, would be key to Steve finally facing the consequences of his crime.
