I am glad to know that the IND is a bastion of morality in an otherwise blackened and corrupt husk of a world. I am also glad that your employee conducted a referendum among all 2,340 of the affected passengers to confirm that they did indeed prefer death to the scant possibility of servitude. He did ask them, yes? Either way, I find your implied admission of murder, or as you would no doubt phrase it, euthanasia (also illegal in Liberty, last I checked), curious. Self incriminating, really. Well, more a flimsy excuse that attempts to detract from the point that one of your men is now a certified mass murder really.

I find this Lane Hacker's claim equally absurd. I mean, the shots show a transport packed with human occupants, despite the ship in question being nothing more than a stable chassis for cargo pods to be attached to. I find it frankly ridiculous that any legally recognised corporation would be foolhardy and short sighted enough to attempt to transport their fellow human beings inside a cargo pod. Especially not one of the IND's glowing reputation. That cinches it. The pictures must be fake! After all, in reality, such corporations would of course never endanger the lives of those who have placed their trust in them in such a way. No. Of course not.

It also strikes my interest that the ship in question is not as unarmed as Mr. Jethro states - rather it has the pitiful token of firepower in that of a single turret mount. It can support one grade three turret, I believe. Rather pitiful in that it could not hope to dent a gunboat I'm rather afraid. What it could manage, however, is the superficial damage to a ship's standard lifeboat that is seen in one of the original uploaded pictures. If the gunboat had fired on those passengers, it would have destroyed them instantly - none of it's weapons are capable of inflicting superficial damage. Considering the lack of other suspects, that leaves one - the captain of the IND hauler itself. Of course, transporting passengers in cargo pods aside, the fact that the ship was unarmed and unescorted requires one to question the sanity of the captain in question: did the lives of so many really mean so little to you?

One transport captain butchered 2,340 innocent men, women and children. I welcome the fact that the Magistrate's Office has opened an enquiry. I personally would suggest two or three separate investigations, personally: 1) to look into a case of mass murder ([IND]Invisible.Hand), 2) to investigate the conduct of the corporation as a whole, and see how far this rot has spread (frankly, probably quite deep, considering Mr. Jethro's casual reference to several thousand deaths as 'something'), and 3) an investigation into the standards of shuttle and ferry services in Liberty. The kind of ships these twisted men have coerced passengers into travelling in are frankly disgusting.
