After he is processed at the police station, Cruz serves the chemist with a subpoena. However, the plan backfired when Benji Ray (James Lesure) stepped in to represent Carston.
Who is Daniel Wiley?
A new victim of the Stonemore heart valve is a teacher that his students called “Dan the man.” They began a Go Fund Me account for Dan and raised enough money for his valve. However, Stonemore got to him and bought his house for twice the amount it’s worth, so he’s heading to Hawaii. He insisted that he wanted to make the most of the life he had left.
The chemist told Daniel to have a doctor put him on chelation when he arrived in Hawaii. Carston admitted that the valve was poisoning people, and chelation will help get metal out of your bloodstream.
