While technical teams managed to recover the financial ledgers, a massive anomaly baffled the elite cyber division.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"10\">A series of outgoing wire transfers totaling $1.2 billion was sent to a single, anonymous domestic account just four minutes before the perimeter was breached, suggesting a high-level leak within the department itself. Furthermore, an pristine, heavily guarded manifest dated for next week detailed a massive shipment arriving under the name of a prominent Washington politician.<\/p>\n<p data-path-to-node=\"11\">As federal forensic units continue to catalog the vast evidence, Mercer remains in solitary confinement, refusing to speak to prosecutors.
