Assassination attempt on Robert La Follette

On January 20, 2013 at 8:12 AM Mistlân District Attorney Robert La Follette was shot in the right shoulder by a sniper hired by the Brink crime family while stepping out of his car. The bullet exited his body through his deltoid muscle and he suffered major blood loss. La Follette was rushed to the hospital, even being dead for a few seconds while in the ambulance. Surgeons preformed immediate surgery on him when he got to the hospital, and after surgery was completed he fell into a week long coma, but woke up to the smell of his favorite steak being transported outside of the hospital.

Brink crime family boss Issaac Lievendag was mad at La Follette for indicting and convicting many Brink members, and the Brinks were almost going to go out of power. He decided they needed to fight back so he had Lourens Platenkamp, a Brink soldier, shoot La Follette. Platenkamp was arrested a few days later and told the police that Lievendag told him to do it, so the police arrested Lievendag. Platenkamp was charged with attempted murder and attempted murder of a public official, and Lievendag was charged with conspiracy to commit murder and conspiracy to murder a public official. Platenkamp, who was 55 at the time, was sentenced to life in prison. Lievendag was sentenced to 30 years in prison.

After a few weeks in prison, Lievendag got into a fight with Platenkamp and almost beat him to death. After serving just two years in prison, Issaac Lievendag escaped prison and is still not accounted for. It is believed that he is still the boss of the Brink crime family.
