--Patrol Report--

Patrol: 8.0
Date: 02 May 822 AS
Subject: Organs on ice
Reporting Officer: Kyle Cosmo

Moving out on patrol in New York it seemed like another relaxed pace day. As I approached planet Manhattan I found two vessels one belonging to the Navy (5th|John.Armada) and one freelance science vessel (SV-Atreyu) they appeared to be talking so I proceeded to scan the SV-Atreyu quietly. However while scanning the SV-Atreyu I found they were carrying human organs I had to speak up at this point and I asked them to hand the organs over to me. The captain of the SV-Atreyu then claimed that they had premisson to carry them but the navy pilot spoke up and said that they could not find any evidence to support that claim. When we questioned on this permission the captain claimed they had be given permission from a Alex someone of the primary navy fleet. I made the call that it was a very weak defense at best espicially as I hadn't seen any other primary navy ships in New York during my patrol so I decide that I would take the organs but not fine the captain as this was an unusual situation. Of course as expect the captain had a couple arguments but did hand the organs over as I went to leave however they continued with their protests were I informed them to look at it from my perspective they were carrying organs without a permit. They tried arguing that it is a research vessel not a pirate ship hence the organs must've be obtained legally so I made the argument that means they could be operating on slaves. At this point they crossed the line when the said "Who is to say that you aren't going to sell Mr. Losen's donation on the black market." that phrase made me believe that it was their intention all along to sell the organs so I fined the captain 2 million credits for carrying contraband. They reluctantly paid but also threatened that they would get 10x of the money back in a law suit against the LPI. At this point the 5th fleet pilot was putting their opinion into the conversation adding things like "LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U], hand these organs to me and I will keep them until this case can be proved right or wrong." and "If I was Primary Fleet I could ensure that he speaks the truth" They were unneeded but I guess the 5th fleet believes they have authority over us. Anyway the organs are on Adirondack in my ships hold.

[02.05.2015 00:12:41] 2015-05-02 00:12:48 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:12:41] SV-Atreyu: Mr. Losen was a long time patron of the sciences and his sacrifce should not go unnoticed.
[02.05.2015 00:12:55] 2015-05-02 00:13:02 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:12:55] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: I understand

[02.05.2015 00:14:04] Death: Spirit.of.Fire was put out of action by [Dev]Alley (Gun).
[02.05.2015 00:14:38] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: I understand but please see this from my angle. Someone is carrying body parts that may have been taken
[02.05.2015 00:14:56] 2015-05-02 00:15:04 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:14:56] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: Without permission and they don't have a permit either
[02.05.2015 00:15:08] 2015-05-02 00:15:16 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:15:08] SV-Atreyu: I would understand that if this wasn't a vessel full of scientists and was instead a criminal vessel.
LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: again who is to say you are operating on slaves on board your vessel
[02.05.2015 00:16:33] SV-Atreyu: Now you're just being insulting sir. Who is to say that you aren't going to sell Mr. Losen's donation on the black market.
[02.05.2015 00:16:48] 2015-05-02 00:16:56 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:16:48] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: Excuse me!!!!!

[02.05.2015 00:17:02] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: How dare you
[02.05.2015 00:17:49] SV-Atreyu: You sir accused the dedicated professionals aboard this vessel of operating on slaves! Do not "Excuse Me!"
[02.05.2015 00:18:16] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: a fine of 2 million credits is now place on your vessel for transporting contraband goods. I was going to overlook the fine
[02.05.2015 00:18:48] 2015-05-02 00:18:56 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:18:48] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: but not now
[02.05.2015 00:19:15] 2015-05-02 00:19:23 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:19:15] SV-Atreyu: Very well sir. Allow me to check the Liberty Law codex for a moment and then I will transfer your pirated money
[02.05.2015 00:19:20] 2015-05-02 00:19:27 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:19:20] SV-Atreyu: To your ship.
[02.05.2015 00:20:18] 2015-05-02 00:20:26 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:20:19] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: Make one more poor comment like that and you may find yourself facing further fines for insulting an officer.
[02.05.2015 00:20:33] 2015-05-02 00:20:41 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:20:33] 5th|John.Armada: Now calm down, both of you.
[02.05.2015 00:20:43] 2015-05-02 00:20:50 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:20:43] 5th|John.Armada: There is no need for such a tension.
[02.05.2015 00:21:22] 2015-05-02 00:21:30 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:21:22] SV-Atreyu: I agree Captain. I will pay the man his "fine" and then get 10X that from the lawsuit against the LPI.
[02.05.2015 00:21:26] 2015-05-02 00:21:33 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:21:26] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: *sighs* I .... agree with you John. Though my point still stands
[02.05.2015 00:21:45] 2015-05-02 00:21:52 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:21:45] 5th|John.Armada: LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U], hand these organs to me and I will keep them until this case can be proved right or wrong.
[02.05.2015 00:21:52] You have received 2.000.000 credits from SV-Atreyu
[02.05.2015 00:22:03] 2015-05-02 00:22:11 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:22:03] 5th|John.Armada: The Officer needs an evidence about the truth of your words, hence for Liberty Law.
[02.05.2015 00:22:24] 2015-05-02 00:22:31 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:22:24] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: I hope you have less issues in the future Atreyu
[02.05.2015 00:22:49] 2015-05-02 00:22:57 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:22:49] SV-Atreyu: You just took over 30% of the research budget of this vessel. Liberty is failing because brute force is more important
[02.05.2015 00:22:58] 2015-05-02 00:23:06 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:22:58] SV-Atreyu: than scientific understanding and reason.
[02.05.2015 00:23:10] 2015-05-02 00:23:18 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:23:10] 5th|John.Armada: You on the other hand can request a license on Liberty Goverment, at the LPI or LN board, in order to ensure you
[02.05.2015 00:23:17] 2015-05-02 00:23:24 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:23:17] 5th|John.Armada: won't be bothered any further.
[02.05.2015 00:23:39] 2015-05-02 00:23:47 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:23:39] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: The organs will be taken to Adriondack
[02.05.2015 00:24:17] 2015-05-02 00:24:25 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:24:17] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: Indeed as verbal confirmation with vessels that aren't around is hardly a defense
[02.05.2015 00:24:18] 2015-05-02 00:24:26 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:24:18] 5th|John.Armada: Freeze them in a state where they won't rott away, and leave them open, but untouched by anyone.
[02.05.2015 00:24:50] 2015-05-02 00:24:58 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:24:50] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: Don't worry we have a location for objects like these to be kept safe
[02.05.2015 00:25:17] 2015-05-02 00:25:25 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:25:17] 5th|John.Armada: If I was Primary Fleet I could ensure that he speaks the truth, but unfortuantely I am not.
[02.05.2015 00:26:07] 2015-05-02 00:26:15 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:26:07] LPI-SWAT-K.Cosmo[U]: Well I will move to freeze these organs now.
[02.05.2015 00:26:23] 2015-05-02 00:26:31 SMT
[02.05.2015 00:26:23] 5th|John.Armada: Do so, the responsibility is on you, Officer.
