The poisoned milk was rushed to the crime lab.
The results were horrifying.
A fast-acting neurotoxin had been mixed into the formula—strong enough to stop an infant's breathing within minutes.

Someone wanted him dead.
Detective Ryan Brooks requested footage from every security camera inside the mansion.
Most of them showed nothing unusual.

"There was one more camera."
Everyone looked at her.
"The old nanny camera."

Pulled a small glass vial from her sleeve.
Mixed something into the formula.
