NSG Senate Lobby: Four Scones and Seven Pastries Ago

[Kouralia]

We've got it. You forget, you uploaded it to the Monarchists' Journal.

While it was his private property, to do with as he wished... you had no claim on that screen capture.

Where did I say we did?

[Dendart]

He had a different document, from a different source. You don't own the text in the screen capture, you own the screen capture that you had as evidence. He has a different screen capture, which is his private property, that just so happens to contain the same text.

Okay, simple. We request a seizure warrant from the courts.

Releasing a "classified government document" implies that the document is classified and owned by the government... This is assuming you're going to charge him with that, instead of the ridiculous "complicity to murder" charges.

You have nothing to worry about, then. It's sheer stupidity to charge you with complicity to murder (which Kour seems intent on doing), so just sit tight and let it go to trial. You and Pelle are innocent of everything, the Justice ministry and courts will see that.

I don't have time to be on trial I have to go to rome for easter

I've contacted the Justice Minister and will contact the President and Interior Minister. We'll see if we can fast-track this nonsense...

[Ainin]

Can I ask how the Ministers of the Interior or Justice gain IC knowledge of this without resolve to extreme metagaming?

[Ainin]

Train's here, bbl

[Mediciano]

The fact that the senator was arrested? That's common IC knowledge...

But IC we wouldn't know about what he did to get arrested (yet).

[Kouralia]

I get the slight feeling that none of those people are in the frame of mind to attempt to fast track investigations into your personal friends.

Ah, right you are. We'll hold off then.

Investigations? Try fabricated charges....

We haven't charged him yet. Sorry about that.

This is exactly the sort of thing you said when Kruger was arrested and we all know what the outcome of that was.

OOCly: I had reasons to do what I did in pleading guilty, not the least of which was that I wanted a new character and for that dumb trial to end. I could have ICly dragged it out, but there was no need. Here, I am genuinely trying to protect the interests of a fellow CMP member who is being unjustly prosecuted.

My point is that you were using very similar arguments so we have a good reason to take what you are saying with a pinch of salt.

[Mishmahig]

Wait, I'm sorry.

A senator is being prosecuted for murder because of a screencap in which he had contacted the organization behind a terrorist attack? A screencap that doesn't show the full text of the message, and which really doesn't seem to say anything incriminating?

I feel like I'm missing something major here. Where's the basis for the murder?

[Beta Test]

Not murder. 1,500 counts of attempted murder.

My apologies.

That still doesn't clear up my confusion.

14, actually, and just complicity. The Gendarme has read him his charges. Why would he be charged with the anthrax attacks?

Because he gave the anthrax to SJ, did he not?

WHAT?? Senator Machiavelli? How did you reach that conclusion?

It just occurred to me that you might not be aware that Kruger pled guilty. We're discussing Senator Machiavelli who's on trial for publishing a screencap sent to him by the Stormjagers in the Monarchist Journal.
