That was their timeline.
Not mine.
I had work to do.
On Thursday, I set up.
First, I called the local police precinct—not 911, but the non-emergency line.
I spoke to Sergeant Miller, explaining the situation calmly and professionally.
“I have a title dispute, Sergeant. My brother and his associates are threatening to forcibly remove me from my property, which I own. They are bringing movers on Saturday. My attorney will be present.”
I emailed him copies of the deed, the finalized probate court order, and most importantly Mike’s report on Arthur Peters.
The words disbarred, fraud, pending cases did the trick.
“Ma’am,”
Sergeant Miller said, his tone shifting from civil dispute to criminal matter,
“you’re right to call. Attempting to evict someone with fraudulent documents—especially with a known fraudster—is a serious offense.”
“We can’t intervene in a civil matter, but we can be present to prevent a breach of the peace, and we can act if we witness a crime in progress.”
“That’s all I ask,”
I said.
“Just be there.”
“Saturday morning. Nine a.m. We’ll have a car there, Ms. Gable. Don’t you worry.”
Next, I called the moving company.
Andrew—in his infinite stupidity—had used his own name.
I found Andy’s Big Move listed locally.
I called them not as Hannah, but as a concerned neighbor.
“Hi,”
I said, pitching my voice up,
“I’m calling about the move scheduled for Saturday at the old Gable farmhouse. My brother Andrew booked it. I just wanted to confirm the time.”
The dispatcher was all business.
“Yep, got it right here. Gable. Nine a.m. Saturday. Big job—whole house.”
“Wonderful,”
I said.
“He can be a bit disorganized. Is the payment all set?”
“Oh, he paid the deposit, but he’s paying the balance on site. Cash. He said the… uh… current resident might be a bit difficult, but that he had legal papers to show her.”
So he was planning to pay the movers with my money after he sold my house.
The audacity took my breath away.
I spent the rest of the day preparing the house.
