Origin: Officer Callum Long Target: Universal Shipping, Liberty Police Incorporated Subject: Slavery in our midst
I am... concerned. About the management... dispatch... generally, really, about the staff of Universal Shipping who saw fit to acquire, load, and ship 5000 cargo units worth of slaves, crammed to the last in a fluid-carrying tanker.
Let me be absolutely clear, because I had the opportunity to triple-check this - a cargo ship with a Universal Shipping transponder, and authenticated papers to match, was hauling slaves through the heart of Liberty.
Thankfully, the captain of the Metro.Urgent was in agreement that this cargo should be taken directly to Manhattan, "as planned", and relinquished to the Customs Department for processing. This could have been a much more difficult situation had the captain not been agreeable. Have you ever had to deal with hostage situations, in space? They're a nightmare.
I would severely suggest that you undertake damage control and disciplinary measures about the staff involved in this misadventure, end-to-end, and will leave judicial penalties to the administrative department, given the complex nature of this infraction.
