Post Body

This is in regard to these three pressuring croc into revealing his inventory for an alleged lost sword of droid's, and then killing him to search for it, when he refused (as is his right) to show his inventory. Croc did nothing to arouse reasonable suspicion, he was just standing nearby, and then later sticking up for his constitutional rights.

  • Murder, 300: for killing Croc without sufficiently meeting any of the exceptions for legal killing. I.e. there was no self defense, and there was not reasonable suspicion of Croc committing a crime, thus making the killing murder.

  • A 600 violation for an illegal search backed by threat of violence: Croc has a constitutional right to be free from unreasonable searches and seizures (MABOR VI). The defendants tried to coerce him into a search through threat of violence. Since it falls under 600, there are no exact legal details, but as can be seen in almost every single other law, the text "The coercion by force, threat of force, fraud, payment or contracting by promise of payment or reimbursement any party with the goal of causing the above shall be prosecuted as the same" is routine in MtA law.

Coercion with threat of violence, therefore, with the goal of causing a search of Croc for the sword is effectively as illegal as a search itself. So unless the defense can establish reasonable suspicion prior to this, i.e. without mentioning anything about the search, then they violated Croc's rights to privacy.

  • Either treason or an equivalent 600 crime: According to Article III.A.v, no pearl may be held in MtA independently of its judicial system. Therefore, a non-elected citizen freeing a pearl on a whim, without any provision in the legal system for this to be done, was an illegal jailbreak that violated MtA sovereignty. Or, alternatively a 600 violation for blatant disregard of Article III.A.v, one or the other. Whether the pearl was gained legally to begin with is irrelevant to this.

  • Second degree griefing 100.02 (intent to gain entry) of Figasaur's Starbucks. Since there was not reasonable suspicion of a crime, law 700 does not apply in this case to protect the defendants for their actions in breaking a building to get at Croc. Thus, their damage was griefing.

  • A 600 violation, also for MABOR VI, but a separate count for a different issue: Croc lost an enchanted axe in the process of being pearled and then released and items shuffled around. This is an unreasonable seizure of "personal effects". Even if the killing was ruled justified, there was no good reason to keep his axe, so this still applies. Or, alternatively, Theft (200), if the judge prefers to interpret items as property. This particular charge will be dropped if/as-soon-as the axe is returned
