Moments later, Avery is shocked when she witnesses Davies being murdered.After breaking the encrypted file Davies gave to her, Avery reveals a list of names—all federal judges—and, alarmingly, all judges on the FISA Court (the United States Foreign Intelligence Surveillance Court), also known as America’s "secret court."
