I am pleased to inform you, it is appearent that the Liberty Rogues have found out about your companys contract on their vessels, to such a degree their independent associates prefer to commit suicide, rather than be exterminated or arrested.
Today I ran across a Liberty Rogue vessel listed in the Sirius wide ships registers as the "Polly_Boy", 4 traderings from Planet Mojave in the California system. No doubt he was waiting for an [IND] trader to pass by.

The Liberty Navy gunboat [LN]-Matt.Smith was present in a polite conversation with this Rogue, asking him to vacate the area. I informed him of the Interspace Neural Net Division bounty on Rogues, and was asked by the Navy vessel if I intended to collect on it.
My reply was affirmative, unless the Rogue would voluntarily surrender for arrest, and be escorted to the nearest LPI correctional facility. The Rogue did not reply over the comms, but instead tried to run for the tradelane. Without harming the lane, I managed to temporarly disable it, thereby preventing the Rogue from making his escape trough the lanes.
While taking out his shield, he continued to run for the next trade lane in the direction of Planet Mojave, trying to utilize the lanes as he encountered them. Alas, besides taking out his shields with my peashoters, I also ensured that the gates were temporarily disabled with an EMP burst when in proximity of them, forcing the culprit to continue towards Mojave on thrusters.
As soon as we reached planetary orbit, the Rogue, knowing the outcome of a battle, if he had fired back, decided that suicide would be a better option than destruction or arrest, so he proceeded directly into the atmosphere of Planet Mojave. A quite stupid moved, considering he was in a vessel not equipped for orbital re-entry.
I don't know if this qualifies for your firms issued bounties, but it sure put a smile on my face, knowing that the issuing of Interspace Neural Net Divison bounties upon them, put such fear into the hearts of the Liberty Rogues and their associates, they prefer to exterminate themselves. I hope it will put a smile on the face of you and your staff as well.
If you need corroboration regarding the incident, the commander of the [LN]-Matt.Smith who was within scanner range during the chase and its conclusion, has stated that he will confirm this report.
If you do choose to pay out a bounty for this kill, please put it into the family foundation neural net account: BHG|Millers_Lite
Best regards,
Erwin Miller,
Pilot of the BHG| fighter vessel "Schrödingers Cat"

This is bounty hunter Blato.
I saw the bounty posted while having a break, and i must say, i'm prety interested in collecting it, as for the money, so for the reason of lowering the piracy in my favourite systems.
Howdy folks. Ran into a coupla Rogues in Texas just now. I used a Navy dread that happened to be around as a bait to lure out a good lot of them. It worked all right, two Barghests and a Falcata soon popped up on scanners. I gave 'em the message you required and opened fire. I tried to keep the dread off 'em so it wouldn't kill the Rogues, but you know how the secondary fleet can be. Good thing it's gunners were the usual level and didn't do any damage at all to the targets.
After a while of shootin' it cleared on the Rogues they wouldn't make it with me on their tails an' tried to bribeme to leave them alone. They ended up offering me fifteen millions to stop shootin', but I refused. After that, the one tryin' the bribery started runnin' off. I kept his engines disrupted, so he ended up crashin' into the planet's atmosphere rather than gettin' killed by me. Once they lost their first Barghest, one of them ran off leavin' me ta fight the Falcata. It too went down after a short fight. At least he didn't go suicidin' on me.
Right, nailed one Barghest again. He was robbin' some poor trader by the Mojave-NY gate lane. Attacked him an' chased him into the asteroid fields. Jus' got the bugger as I was about to get jumped on by a bunch of his friends. Got the kill an' ran off, wouldn't have stood a chance against the lot.
Indigo, outstanding show as always. You're rapidly encroaching on your raise. Your pay has been deposited with my thanks.
Mr. Murray, you're proving to be an exceptional investment. Driving the LR- to suicide counts in my books as readily as if you pulled the trigger itself. Your commitment to the contract you've signed on with further rates a show of appreciation. In a world where money is the final bidder it's always prudent to reward loyalty. Consider the small bonus attached to your payout as a token of the IND's appreciation.

Gentlemen,
Rumor has it the BHG are currently all registered for this hunt. Nevertheless I'd like to register personally so each one of my outings is nice 'n legal.
I look forward to publishing some footage from the BHG|Suspect in the near future.
[font=Comic Sans Ms] The BHG| is currently assigned to this bounty, unless they fail to respond to the Best of the Best challenge. If they do not feel they are the Best of the Best they do not feel that this bounty applies to them.
