Internal Communication Liberty Navy 46th Strike Force Encryption:Recoil-Alpha - for the eyes of Lt.Cmdr Camile Summers only
Sender ID: 2Star Adm. Van Leer Recipient ID: Lt.Cmdr Camile Summers Subject: Ageira and Lane Hackers
Lieutenant Commander,
Obviously that the vessel fired at you is wrong and I will bring it up with Ageira.
When it comes to Lane Hacker affiliates - the thing I'd say is that Lane Hackers are former Ageira employees, very few are caught - in fact, legend says no Lane Hacker was caught alive yet! So try to see their point of view - their affiliates are likely to have internal Ageira information and intel- would you say it's reasonable it could be perceived as the matter of their internal security and a priority for them to try to debrief the affiliates before handing them over to The Authorities?
The Legal Framework
Strictly legally speaking
Quote:1. Trade regulations
The possession of Civilian pilots and Liberty personnel is not permitted.
Liberty Forces are allowed to confiscate these goods and transport them for evidence storage.
For exceptions to these laws, please visit List of approved special licenses that were granted via License Requisition Center.
Quote:3. Hostile organisations
It is illegal to affiliate with, work for, possess identification, ship, equipment, technology or weaponry from these organisations:
- Lane Hackers
The Law does not allow us to enforce taking criminals from civilian pilots. I agree with your sentiment about due process. However we do not write the laws, but merely swore to uphold them. My theory is that The Government wants to encourage citizens and corporations to have security divisions, and to be able to hand criminals to our bases themselves for a reward, credit etc. We already outsource police work to a private company, and Liberty does want to encourage citizens standing up for our Laws and against hostile organizations.
Going Forward
You are of course free to live by your belief and convictions, and request citizens hand over criminals so you can process them yourself. Especially if they are known entities of interest to The Strike Force.
However,
1) You cannot in any way threaten them if they do not comply, as the legal framework of The Law does not give us that power.
2) You should offer to compensate civilians for doing the LPI's work, and offer rewards, monetary or otherwise, for handing over the ciminal entities to us a opposed to E.G. Harrisburg station that will reward them with high bounties.
Consequences
There are none for you - your intentions were good, you fulfill your duty honorably and in line with your beliefs. We are proud of the service you do for Liberty, and please continue on your path.
Simply consider this an order to operate within the legal bounds of The Law at all times, and when it comes to Liberty citizens like Ageira - offering rewards and assuming their good intention first is the preffered mindset we want The Strike Force to take.
Is that understood and do you agree with the points above Summers? You of course have the permission to speak freely, this stays between the two of us.
You can focus on your duty, and we will deal with Ageira on The High Command level in the meantime.
