Reasonably quiet day today, only a few misguided Mercenaries and smugglers. Nearly all were apprehended and dealt with.
The day started off with a spate of traders and/or smugglers attempting to break the trade embargo between Rhienland and Liberty. Lieutenant Rick Gunner apprehended each trader attempting to violate Liberty law, see report D-12A for more details.
Ronin-Yann was found to be kidnapping Liberty law enforcers, and after refusing to transfer the hostages over to my ship, myself and an LSF agent opened fire on the target, rescuing all hostages, who suffered only minor injuries.
I returned to Manhatten to investigate a possible Cardamine smuggler that was coming in fast. Sure enough, a Cardamine smuggler by the name of Moon-Curser was inbound, and i was hot on his tail. Unfortunately, some idiot at docking control allowed the smuggler to dock with Manhatten, and the drugs have not yet been recovered.
Later on in the day, a Mercenary by the name of Daniel Feenix was picked up around Planet Housten in Texas. He voiced the fact that he was going to kill me to get $1mil from his Outcast Dons. He didn't stand a chance. The Mississippi opened fire after these comm messages were intercepted, and the Mercenary was downed soon after.
An interesting situation occurred towards the end of my shift, when I encountered a Bounty Hunter Battlecruiser (Morningstar), packed full of Nomad entities. He claimed to be on a mission to Willard Research Station, and asked that we escort him there under fear of heavy Hacker attack. I decided the high risk of transferring the Nomads outweighed the risk of trusting this Bounty Hunter. Myself and the Enchanted escorted him to Willard, where I received word that he successfully transferred the Nomads to the safe hands of the scientists at the research station.
