BREAKING NEWS - Renaldo Joganic Update

This is Trish Donaldson for WKSN News.

Earlier this month, Renaldo Joganic was caught hacking the UCAS Bank and was publicly lynched for being a Technomancer. At that time, Lone Star collected Renaldo's body for DNA testing and we now have positive confirmation that Mr. Joganic, AKA Blue Monday was in fact a Technomancer.

Lone Star representative, Jane Hawkins told WKSN News that Mr. Joganic, had been undergoing long term treatment for Artificially Induced Psychotropic Schizophrenia Syndrome (AIPS) at a local medical facility.

"No one is really sure, when Renaldo escaped from the facility. No video camera captured the escape and the security system had actually been hacked to display a loop of video, so it looked like the patient had never left. What's even weirder is that the hospital logs still listed that he was being checked on daily. After a bit of investigating, we found that the nurse checking on Renaldo didn't actually exist and that her pay was being deposited to a hacked UCAS Bank account. It seems to us that Renaldo Joganic hacked the hospital computers, escaped unnoticed and went to collect the money, that he had scammed from the hospital," said Jane Hawkins

"While Lone Star doesn't condone this sort of vigilante justice, the Seattle citizens involved did use a favor and took out a very dangerous criminal," said Sargent Banks.

This is disgusting, whilst the Templars may be facist bastards denying right to trails at least they don't support Vigilanteism like the Star.

I don't know, Bankie. Sounds like a major endorsement to me.

"We don't encourage it, but we're not really going to punish it, either. Wink wink, nod nod, fall over myself helping you to get away with murder."

Thinking like that lost them the contract with Winnipeg after all.

Well, that, and beating up the Mayor's Son for "Driving While Meta" in the suburb where he lived.

Indeed. When it comes to a police force, no action speaks as loud as excessive action. They are, in fact, there to protect and serve everyone under their jurisdiction, even criminals. Sadly, this has been common practice for hundreds of years.
