Alright, something to add to my first report, a slaver, carrying slaves... Obviously, anyway, I will say, I didn't catch him in Cortez, but a slaver is a slaver, and I picked him up nearby, the guy's name was Easy.Life, I gave him two options, he can either liberate them quietly, or I'd use lethal force, he chose the latter...
After destruction of the vessel, due to lack of proximity to a Molly or IMG base, and the lack of a transport, local authorities were anonymously tipped off to the location of the escape pods, and they were rescued ASAP.
