Tim Finnegan;
I do believe that the purpose of this reporting channel is to keep the Navy from needing to visit your installations at all, is it not?
Now I know you like to oppose us at every turn, and that's okay. Also, do I look of Russian decent to you? I'm used to people calling me "sir", but really?
Arbiter Jack Crow;
The first shot is meant to show, clearly and in no uncertain terms, that the particular engagement happened well outside Rochester's perimeter. As for the rest, I believe that the person who submitted these shots was trying to keep as close as possible to the target, which can be seen on the distance indicator on the scanner in the bottom left.
I am also going to attach a copy of a report in the Navy communication arrays to you, filed by Captain Zanders. This is of a seperate incident, but proves his criminality.

BATTLE REPORT(SYSTEM: NEW YORK)
- TEJ HELFER, PREDATOR OF THE WEAK
____________________________
This Tej Helfer, a mercenary working under the Captain of the Maelstorm who has recently issued a bounty against us was found in the New York system. I know his kind, hired murderer, arrogant individual with an ego the size of Planet Manhattan. He was hiding, but if you challenge him, he must come out. Such as his nature, to let his ego get in between professionalism. I pretended like I was defending my name or some-sort of manhood talk over the system, the minute you make it public he must reply. I knew he would.
I told him my location, and eventually he did come. Initially questioning if the allied navy pilots around me were going to attack as well. But they were just there to form a perimeter around my duel. I wanted to make sure he couldn't escape when his last nanobot would be used. Because a man with too much pride, will also be a coward, once said pride is hurt. However, he didn't escape. He was shot down. But he was clever, at the very last minute when his ship could take no more gunshots from mine...
... He stopped his vessel from moving. And fired a mine to destroy his own ship. Hoping that the trick would fool the public he was so desperate to win over. But that is the best part, the Liberty Navy is not some kind of war-clan. This was not an attempt to achieve the public's attention. It was simply an easy psychological tool used against the Mercenary, to lure him out of his cave and eliminate him.
He is weak. He does not possess any skills that are considered a threat. Hence why he preys on the weak, the Ensigns of our force is whom he constantly try to chase. Those he know he can overcome. But even though we superior officers can't always watch over those inexperienced pilots, I still know a tactic that can beat even a predator of the weak.
