What I witnessed was my coworker, the security guard, murder his great-grandfather. I stole the document earlier that day and changed a few words around in hopes of gaining the inheritance myself. I was nearing homelessness. I needed somewhere to live. My coworker was well-established, and since we were related, I assumed nothing would be questioned.
