Strategic Operations, Stardate 239301.20 Commander Cormac was . . . assaulted today while we were investigation the death of Petty Officer Addison. (short pause) You know what? I'm not even sure 'assaulted' is the right word. He was . . . asphyxiated by a . . . sigh A mirror was about five seconds from killing Cormac today. Doctor Shrmoa has a doctors report. I'm sure it'll be one hell of a read. Looked into the apartment's previous tenants - two Klingons lived in it last, vacating when one Tucker Lee suddenly collapsed dead whilst fixing a sink in their bathroom, though the Marshals cleared them both of all charges. Like Seelie, they're swearing black and blue that the bathroom mirror was responsible. Marshals seemed convinced that the case was no longer worth their time and ended up ruling it death by natural causes - Elis and Shrmoa are under the impression that, despite no obvious link between Lee, Addison and Cormac, their human biology may be a target for the mirror. I've got Marshals looking into other incidents in the apartment, but they're being incredibly slow-going - likely something to do with how ridiculous this all sounds and reads on the books. I'm trying to work out if it's worth explaining to the Marshals that the mirror may be responsible for Lee's a couple years back, given that the medical report matches Addison's. Since, you know, that case was left open-ended for them. They might have better luck tracking down it's maker then we would. Klingons haven't exactly responded favorably to Starfleet crew members looking into a . . . mirror. (10 second pause) Maybe I'll just explain the tech and leave out the actual mirror. That'll . . . yeah, that'll do it. |

Personal Log, Stardate 239403.05 I don't typically keep logs of any kind - usually all my days work can be found in reports to the captain or XO. Being, however, that I am now the First Officer of this ship, Captain Rahman insists that perhaps I should keep a personal log or maybe a less detailed FO log for the ship's records. I still don't personally see the benefit, but either way, here I am. I heard from Syb - Faith is doing well. Ayden had to be taken to a doctor earlier in the month for another check-up. Despite his current condition, all is relatively okay. Doctors are pleased with how he is faring. I got another request to join the search for Titus Vassily. Or, rather, I opened another request that I may have received months ago. I think it's safe to say that Starfleet Security and Intelligence reps finally understand the meaning of 'no'. The new crew are doing well. Commander Moonsong has put in a request for additional counsellors - this is strange to me. Veritas had a total of two counsellors for two years, not even that I don't think, and I never heard any complaints. Maybe there were complaints and I just didn't hear about them. I have no idea. Elis is doing well. As is Zhou. No word from Cormac, but given he's out literally in the middle of nowhere here in the Shoals, I don't expect to hear from him for another month or so. |
First Officer's Log, Stardate 239403.10 Dealt with a minor incident today involving two Veritas Bridge officers. Upon returning to Veritas last night, I was pulled aside by an Esperance bar manager asking why members of one of the Starfleet crews were picking fights in his establishment, and I told him I'd follow it up. He gave the descriptions of one Carter Greyson and an officer I hadn't yet met (a new transfer, I'd find out from Mei'konda later). Lieutenant JGs Greyson and Kaansi Desan got called into my office that morning where I gave them a warning and explained the complexities of our relationship with the people of the Shoals - and more specifically, Esperance, before taking them to Rahman. I'm disappointed that a transferee got into a scuffle on his first day, and that Greyson of all people was involved, but I'm confident it won't happen again. I plan to keep an eye on them for a while regardless. |
Reports (pre-2394)
Incident: Arrest of Kallo Ver
Date Filed: 239212.04
Officers: LtCmdr Sky Blake
Report: Kallo Ver (Valtese male, approximately 5'2) was arrested by LtCmdr Blake and charged for smuggling illegal narcotic, karasone, in colonial space. Ver was arrested on stardate 239211.28 and was in Veritas custody for three days, in transit for handover to Colonial Marshals.
However, on stardate 239212.01, Ver broke free of his hand restraints in the Edira City Marshals' office and evaded further attempts at arrest, fleeing in a stolen vessel. Last known heading was into the Shadows, with Starfleet and Marshal officers unable to pursue.
Incident: Death of Petty Officer Tiana Addison (Natural Causes Homocide Accidental)
Date Filed: 239301.22
Officers: LtCmdr Sky Blake, LtCmdr Brandon Cormac, Lt Shrmoa Eys-icamo, LtJG Elis Nacubaq, Ens Adalind Sierra
Report: Petty Officer Addison was found deceased (asphyxiation) in her Meridian apartment only three days into her leave of absence. One suspect, Mr Karton Seelie, was arrested at the scene by Meridian Marshals*, hands covered with trace amounts of Addison's blood, and also possessed an electro-point (illegal in Meridian space).
Mr Seelie claimed innocence during interrogation - further analysis of crime scene data coincides with his story. However, Seelie went on to state his belief that Addison's bathroom mirror was involved in her death. He was kept in the Veritas Sick Bay for a psychological evaluation before continuing questioning.
Upon looking into previous tenants of Addison's apartment, details of a prior incident arose from Marshal liaisons, involving the death of one Tucker Lee (cause of death, asphyxiation). Cha'kon and Vektok, the then-tenants, were interviewed as suspects in Addison's death - also swearing innocence, claiming death was caused by the bathroom mirror.
Further investigation was completed. Mr Seelie was charged with possession of illegal weaponry, Cha'kon and Vektok released. Analysis of the bathroom mirror shows hidden Klingon bio-electrical emitter targeting human victims. Though its Klingon origin is clear, Klingon officials claim to know nothing of its existence. There are no further suspects, no motive, and no evidence to indicate that it is targeting specific victims. It's possible the mirror was placed there years prior to Addison's death and continued to take victims after it's intended target. At present, it's assumed there have been three victims (Lee, Addison, and LtCmdr Cormac (Cormac having been 'attacked' during the investigation)), though Marshals intend to go back through their files and check if others died mysteriously in the apartment.
The mirror has since been dismantled, pending further investigation, and is currently in many pieces in a stasis container in the Veritas storage locker. All data pertaining to it have been forwarded to Marshals.
*Upon identifying Addison, Colonial Marshals quite gladly handed the case to Starfleet Security.
