President Trevor Simpson, along with members of his cabinet, and a few key senators have all been arrested on orders from Attorney General Jessica Summers. They have all been charged with treason, 1st degree murder, fraud, and a host of other federal crimes connected to the recent assassination of President Artuis Burrill. Speaker of the House John Kemp has been sworn into office as acting President. We have reports that government officials are having to keep all suspects under constant watch in secure government facilities, because a mob of citizens are threatening to storm any jail they are being kept. The citizens are completely distraught that our young President was betrayed by his own people, and people in his inner circle. We can all agree, that he was betrayed and they took a national treasure from us by the murder of President Burrill.
Here to the address the nation in a news conference is Attorney General Jessica Summers:
Good evening, at about 7:45 P.M today Federal Agents arrested Trevor Simpson and a team of conspirators for the murder of President Artuis Burrill. Currently, the suspects are all being kept in secured government facilities until they can be brought to trial. We had received reports of a major conspiracy inside the government was responsible for the assassination of President Burrill with the help of domestic citizens, and agencies, in addition to aid from foriegn intelligence sources.
President Kemp has recently taken the oath of office, and has ordered all military hostilties against Zonolia be abandoned until further notice. However, he has made it clear that in no way does the reflect the opinion of this nations view on the recent killing of 15,000 of Zonolian citizens by its government. However, until further notice all Marcudian forces are to stand down, and all naval fleets to withdraw within a 30 mile radius of Zonolian waters.
Currently, due to the sensitive nature of these events and our recent investigation into it, that is all we have for you as of now. Thank you and I will not be taking any questions at this time.
This is truly an alarming course of events, the question remains as to the psychological effect this will have on the whole nation.
In our nation, the Empress is the absolute authority. She CANNOT be arrested for anything. The only way she could be arrested is by a coup or conspiracy. The Empress would be the one arresting the Attorney General (Minister of Justice) in our nation, and not the Attorney General with her.
Our nation is not a monarchy and is a Constitutional Republic. Our leaders have to answer to the people, and crimes are to be prosecuted by the attorney general.
