But there was nothing predestined about the victory.

My name is Raymond Phillips. I graduated in 1996 with a bachelor's degree in criminal justice. After graduating, I went to work for a private security firm as an analyst and during my time there I was assigned to a big corporate client who was involved in some illegal activities and unfortunately I was exposed to their actual act of crime. Afterward, I found myself running for my own safety and had to disappear seven years ago.
