It appears that a group of private investigators has chosen the unfortunate path of becoming private instigators of public dissidence.
As unfortunate as it may be, we are hereby releasing a bounty claim worth 150 million Sirius Credits for either the capture or destruction of the ship under "Redemption" callsign. An additional bonus of 50 million Sirius Credits will be provided upon confirmation of interception should it occur in 3 (three) days time from the posting of this message.
The Admiralty Board is offering 50 million Sirius Credits per every confirmation of a shot down employee or ship belonging to Johnny's Office. The offered bounty remains claimable 3 additional times.

Esteemed Bounty Hunters and Freelancers,
Following a recent message dispatched to the Admiralty Board, the standing bounty is increased by 50 million Sirius Credits as a result of the office presenting a lie to the Armed Forces about the circumstances of the incident that has led to this course of action being followed through.
The channel's frequency and encryption has now also been adjusted to the standard government encryption to prevent the office from attempting to break into our communications.

Esteemed Bounty Hunters and Freelancers,
We apologize for the presenting another change, however the Admiralty Board is now offering 50 million Sirius Credits per every employee, respectively ship, of the Johnny's Office that is shot down. This remains claimable up to ten times.
The original statement has been amended to better fit the changing situation. Good hunting.
I have just readied my fleet of vessels and contacted my killcountant - you seem to not have mentioned who exactly is part of this so-called "Johnny's Office".
Who are the targets besides "Redemption"? Tesoro won't fly around killing people for free you know! - Tesoro Cazadora, Bounty Hunter
The deed is done - Redemption (ID Proof) has been taken down in Leeds: Hit proof
I will take the 50,000,000 to Manta.of.Tesoro, please and thank you! - Tesoro Cazadora, Bounty Hunter
The claim has been paid in full. Due to it representing the sole claim thus far, it has received an additional bonus.
We also wish to inform of a change in the number of claimable bounties. The total remaining amount is henceforth set to 5 (five) from 10 (ten) due to a lack of reports brought in. Original post will be amended in several minutes.
Bounty payouts for the above-mentioned targets are hereby halted until further notice.
We will provide a report on the situation within 48 hours and clarify if the bounties remain valid. We thank all participants for the support thus far.

Ran into your man in Inverness. Unfortunately the guncams timestamp was corrupted but I'll attach the blackbox logs below to prove the date.
[24.07.2023 23:35:44] Amalie.Schaumann: So you went after me, from Texas, then Kansas and then here because you were bored?
[24.07.2023 23:35:44] Redemption: J: They're gone.
[24.07.2023 23:35:55] Gemini.Kay: ... I am right here?
[24.07.2023 23:35:57] Redemption: J: I wanted to go to Inverness...?
[24.07.2023 23:36:15] Amalie.Schaumann: So you were heading to Inverness as well?
[24.07.2023 23:36:22] Redemption: J: Apologies, Gemini, I confused you with someone else.
[24.07.2023 23:36:33] Redemption: J: Well, ask Gemini, I'm here often. Relatively
[24.07.2023 23:36:36] Gemini.Kay: It happens, no worries.
[24.07.2023 23:36:52] Redemption: J: Dunno. I feel interrogated.
[24.07.2023 23:36:55] Amalie.Schaumann: Gemini said your colleague is here, not you.
[24.07.2023 23:37:04] Rebecca.Harper: Also, note the fact this guy is cloak equipped.
[24.07.2023 23:37:07] Redemption: J: Yes, we're multiple persons.
[24.07.2023 23:37:17] Redemption: J: Well not me, we have a few ships.
[24.07.2023 23:37:25] Gemini.Kay: My Cee-Dees are ready!
[24.07.2023 23:37:36] Amalie.Schaumann: Alright...
[24.07.2023 23:37:49] Rebecca.Harper: Satisfied?
[24.07.2023 23:37:57] Gemini.Kay: I mean, you have to understand that people are feeling uncomfortable getting chased by intel pilots.
[24.07.2023 23:38:10] Redemption: J: Who said I'm intel?
[24.07.2023 23:38:10] Amalie.Schaumann: Didn't sound very convincing to me, not sure...
[24.07.2023 23:38:23] Rebecca.Harper: Won't be a problem when I'm finished.
[24.07.2023 23:38:31] Gemini.Kay: Miss Ezra? She said Johnny's Office is an independent intel agency.
[24.07.2023 23:38:41] Rebecca.Harper: Mhm.
[24.07.2023 23:38:44] Rebecca.Harper: Well.
[24.07.2023 23:38:45] Redemption: J: I can safely say that while I was intel, I was disgruntled, and left, and made my own agency. We're bounty hunters basicall.
[24.07.2023 23:38:53] Rebecca.Harper: Enlightening as that was.
[24.07.2023 23:38:53] Amalie.Schaumann: I also have one more question.
[24.07.2023 23:39:06] Redemption: J: You'd see the corruption in Liberty! You'd be surprised!
[24.07.2023 23:39:29] Amalie.Schaumann: What did your people do to get such bounty in Bretonia, Johnny?
[24.07.2023 23:39:47] Rebecca.Harper: Don't bother answering that one.
[24.07.2023 23:39:51] Redemption: J: This very ship got stolen by a Corsair on a Freeport and he said stuff.
[24.07.2023 23:39:55] Rebecca.Harper: Frankly, I do not care.
[24.07.2023 23:40:03] Redemption: J: ... Why did you ask?
[24.07.2023 23:40:03] Rebecca.Harper: Also.
[24.07.2023 23:40:11] Rebecca.Harper: Corsairs don't use our tech.
[24.07.2023 23:40:16] Rebecca.Harper: Bad lie there.
[24.07.2023 23:40:21] Rebecca.Harper: Should have claimed Molly.
[24.07.2023 23:40:26] Rebecca.Harper: Regardless.
[24.07.2023 23:40:27] Redemption: J: Well, we hid...???
[24.07.2023 23:40:36] Rebecca.Harper: It's time to cash in.
[24.07.2023 23:40:37] Redemption: : I'm not an expert...?
[24.07.2023 23:40:41] Rebecca.Harper: Just buisness.
[24.07.2023 23:40:58] Redemption: J: Come on.
[24.07.2023 23:40:59] Gemini.Kay: Huh. Not even moving.
[24.07.2023 23:41:01] Amalie.Schaumann: Hmm...
[24.07.2023 23:41:09] Redemption: J: I don't want to fight.
[24.07.2023 23:41:16] Rebecca.Harper: Unfortunate for you then.
[24.07.2023 23:41:20] Gemini.Kay: I mean, you are presenting yourself with that huge bounty on a silver platter.
[24.07.2023 23:41:41] Rebecca.Harper: Anyway, fight, run, give up, makes no difference to me.
[24.07.2023 23:41:50] Redemption: J: That's why you asked forr out of the NFZ.
[24.07.2023 23:41:55] Rebecca.Harper: Yep.
[24.07.2023 23:41:59] Death: Redemption was put out of action by Rebecca.Harper (Gun).
[24.07.2023 23:42:05] Rebecca.Harper: Wow.
[24.07.2023 23:42:09] Rebecca.Harper: That worked?
[24.07.2023 23:42:17] Amalie.Schaumann: Easiest fifty millions ever...
[24.07.2023 23:42:22] Rebecca.Harper: Yeah.
[24.07.2023 23:42:22] Gemini.Kay: Uhm, even I am surprised.
