This is Captain Jeremiah Sawyer speaking of the gunboat Monitor.
We've (me and a bounty hunter by the name of Sean.Murphy) encountered 2 unresponsive smugglers trying (and unfortunately they managed to deliver their contraband in the end) to smuggle artifacts/sorted artifacts to Planet Manhattan :
I'd like to commend the services of Sean Murphy bounty hunter, who provided me with assistance at chasing down the suspects, I recommend a reward to be transferred to the pilot, and please refer to said pilot, in case you need someone to confirm the whole report.
The vessels' identification were "THP-Flashback.Express" (A Serenity transport), and "CandleGuy" (A Sunburst freighter), as it can be seen in the evidence, both of these vessels were unresponsive, and didn't comply with the request of the law enforcement (me and the bounty hunter)
While they managed to deliver the "goods" their cargo holds were recorded, and the footage is available above.
THP-Flashback.Express paid a fine after chasing it down all the way to Pittsburg, despite disrupting trade lanes in an effort to escape. While the fine has been paid, I'd like if the vessel would be put on notice, for I'm afraid this might not be the last time the captain of that vessel will try such foolish things.
I've got information from a junker transport (the vessel's ID is "The_Trashcan"), that another possible smuggler was present in Cortez, by the ID of "The.Royal.Pollux", a Serenity transport full of artifacts, however the communication logs are all the evidence I have, and can provide.
If you'd like the communication logs for evidence, please contact me.
