Host aCO_Worthington says:
Acting Captain's Log, Stardate 10709.23.  We are returning to Starbase 33 without Captain Ayidee but with LoDuca. I am currently in Command and we will do what we can to exonerate the Captain and deliver the murderer.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<< Begin Mission >>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::on Bridge, at OPS::  COM:  SB33:  The is the USS Cherokee, requesting permission to dock.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
#::On the Davis, watching the ship's orbit the station against the background of the stars.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
#::ringing the chime to Tio's door::

CNS_Wells says:
::On the bridge as we pull into dock::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
COM: SB33: I need to have full security ready for prisoner transfer.  There is no way that I want nothing less then COMPLETE and airtight security on this one.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
::on Bridge, getting ready to dock::

Host LoDuca says:
::still napping, after the CTO knocked him out::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
#Adm: Enter.  ::Laughs.::  Door's open.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::At the flight console::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Starbase> @COM: CTO:  This is Starbase 33.  We have been apprised of your situation.  Full security is standing by.  Are you ready to transport?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
OPS: How long till docking is complete? ::eager to go to the Captain's defense::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
COM: SB33: Prisoner Transport will commence once I have full security verification, Starbase.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
aCO:  I'm waiting on the response from the Starbase where we dock.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Starbase> @COM: OPS:  You will dock inside at berth 23.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
COM:  SB33:  Understand, Berth 23.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
#::walks inside::  CO:  You know what happens next.  I am sorry, but I will have to keep you in the brig on the Starbase until your trial.  ::tears begin to roll down her eyes::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
aCO:  We should be docked within 10 minutes, Commander.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
OPS: Thank you. aXO: Once we dock we will head directly for the Admiral's office.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
FCO:  We are to proceed to Berth 23.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Starbase> @COM: CTO:  Security, as I said, is standing by.  We are ready when you are.  If you have any issues, I am sure you can take them up with OUR Chief of Security.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
Self: I do not think it is the right time to re-introduce myself. I guess I will do that on a later moment. When the people are not to tense anymore.

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: Once we learn who the Captain's legal team will be, I have some files they might like to have, Sir.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
#Adm: No need to apologize.  To take down the biggest threat to local law, I am more than willing to pay the price.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
OPS: Yes Berth 33.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
CNS: What files would that be Counselor?

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Started to locate Berth 33, and floated towards it.::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
COM:SB33: If that’s the case, please have Commander Montegue contact me.  Seeing as Starbase Security has been compromised recently.  I want to speak with her personally for Security Verification to commence.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
#::Turns from the porthole to the door.::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
OPS: We are ready to dock.

CNS_Wells says:
::Gets his research in order and ready to send when the time comes:: aCO: Just some research and history. Stuff like that. It's not much, just trying to help.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
#CO:  If you will stand next to me, we will be transported directly to the brig area.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@<Cmdr Montegue> COM: CTO: And just what is so flipping important that you can't accept verification from anyone else but me you daffy cowboy?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
CNS: Thanks Counselor. Let's hope his lawyer is a good one. If not, we will have to find another.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
COM: SB33:  We are ready for Auxiliary Hook-up.

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: Yes, Sir. Only the best.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: chuckles, nodding to himself that he truly is speaking to Starbase 33. :: COM: Cmdr Montegue: Just wanted to make sure Sleeping Beauty was sent to the right people.  Verification confirmed Starbase 33.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
CNS: The crew is pretty tense. What do you make of it all?

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
Ops: Star Base 33 can pull us in now.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
#::Nods and steps next to the Admiral.::  Adm: It really wasn't a high price to pay.  After all, how many officers lost their lives at Wolf 359?  Cardassia Prime?  Shai?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Starbase> @COM: OPS:  You are secure to our dock.  You are now on station power.

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: They have cause to be tense. I'd say it was normal.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
COM: SB33:  Understood, Station Power connected.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Looking at the procedure how SB33 pulls the Cherokee in.::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
CNS: Things will improve once the Captain is exonerated.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Com: Starbase Security: This is Admiral Alexander, beam Captain Ayidee and myself directly to the brig.
 
CNS_Wells says:
aCO: Rumors are going around about the trial. Everyone's a bit on edge wondering if they'll have to testify against the Captain, or something.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: slowly checks to see that all of his men are ready for the prisoner transfer. ::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@::looks around and sees the security with Phasers drawn::  Security:  Gentlemen, that will not be necessary.  
CO:  If you will be so kind as to step in the first cell?

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
aCO: Commander, we’re ready to commence Prisoner Transfer on your order.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@::Steps in.::  Admiral: It's what they need to do.  Keep their order, keep things set.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
aXO:/OPS: Execute.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
COM: SB33 Security : Cherokee stands ready to transfer Prisoner.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CO:  You know I will do everything in my power to assist you.  ::watches as the Forcefield goes up::  After today, I will not be able to speak to you as I will be on your board.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Starbase> @COM: CTO: Transferring Prisoner now. 

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
aXO:  Would you like the honors of beaming our "guest" to his new digs.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@::Sits on the bed.::  Admiral: I have faith in the law, don't put yourself out on a limb.  Things will go as they should.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  LoDuca is transported to the Starbase and into his brig cell.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
OPS: Montegue is already handling that, Commander.  I appreciate the offer.  But I want this done by the books.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
aXO:  Good thinking.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
aCO: Sir, with your permission I'd like to get with Starbase Security and make sure they have their I's doted and T's crossed.  Last thing I want is that fruit loop getting loose.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CO:  T'Sara is going to be heart broken.  I know she will find a way to get down here.  Would you mind seeing her?

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Staying at the flight console, looking straight forward.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@Adm: Considering the location, would it really be a good idea?  I don't mind, but the other "company" might not be appropriate.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
aXO: Send your best man. We must go harass the Admiral first. We will check on him later. He doesn't have friends anymore.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
aCO: Aye sir.  I'll have Miller go over there and leave Kilbrowski to tend the store while we do that.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CO:  Do YOU think you can keep her away?  If so, tell me how.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Shakes, and thinks he has to tell something.:: aCO: The Cherokee is on the station’s power.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CO:  I have to leave now.  The crew are expected in my office any moment.  Let Mike ::points to security person:: know if you need anything.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
FCO: Thank you Ensign. OPS: You have the bridge. aXO/CNS: You're with me.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::nods::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@Mike:  If he needs anything, within reason, give it to him. ::turns to leave::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@Adm: Perhaps not, but this isn't a place for children.  As I said, I don't mind.  Understood, I'll see you at the Board.

CNS_Wells says:
aCO: Aye, Sir.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
CNS: Counselor, can you do me a favor?  In your free time, would it be possible for you to send me some reference material?  Court matters similar to this one.   I know you're not a legal beagle, but I think it might help if I look into this with something of a clue before I go spouting off at the lip.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
::makes his way to the TL, following the CNS and aXO::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@::walking slowly to the TL, she orders the deck for her office.::

CNS_Wells says:
::Goes into Turbo lift::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: enters behind the CNS and aCO and sends the TL on its way. ::

CNS_Wells says:
CTO: Of course.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  LoDuca begins to come around.  He sits up and wonders where he is.

Host LoDuca says:
@::stirs around:: Self: Where's that ugly girl who was talking to me?  She was really annoying, and the gas!

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@::Walks through the cell, pacing it out.::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@LoDuca: He's sent you where you belong.  Welcome to the end of the line.

Host LoDuca says:
@::looking around he sees that he has company:: Out Loud: Here kitty kitty, here kitty kitty.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
aCO/CNS : I really, really wish there was another way we could do this.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@LoDuca: Good to see you've recovered enough of your wits to realize who you're talking to.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@::exits the TL and heads to the Starbase:: aXO: We will do what we must.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@::enters her outer office, nodding to the Lt. and goes straight inside her office.  Sitting, she lowers her head into her hands::

Host LoDuca says:
@Ayidee: Well, well. Don't they just normally put your kind to sleep?

CNS_Wells says:
@aCO/aXO: First step, find out what we can from the Admiral.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@LoDuca: Only the people who make ash trays out of your hands and desert out of your brains.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: nods, calming himself down as he thinks to himself. :: CNS: Must have been rough on her.  Having to come get Tio.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@*OPS*: Prepare the crew for shore leave. Once you have the ship secured, have the FCO and yourself meet me in the Promenade.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
Self: I hope that my uncle Moskiovitz got my message into. He is a good layer, and maybe he can help the Captain.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
*aCO*:  Understood.

CNS_Wells says:
@aXO: Yes, I'm sure it was. We are all in for an emotional time. Best we keep our heads all the more.

Host LoDuca says:
@Ayidee: Sorry, I don't speak Garfield. No lasagna here. So, whose bed did you piss in?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  The XO, CTO and CNS are heading to the Admiral's office.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@:: nods to himself. :: aCO/CNS: Truth be told I'd rather be interrogating that piece of filth we captured.  :: reaches the Admiral's officer and hits the chime. ::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@LoDuca: Yours, actually.  I'm here for taking you down, against the wishes of your lackeys.  Best slip I've ever made.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@ALL:  Enter.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
FCO:  Cmdr Worthington has granted Shore leave for us, start locking down your station.

CNS_Wells says:
@CTO: Of course you know, you're the last one who should be speaking with LoDuca. I imagine you will be asked to testify in both cases pending.

CNS_Wells says:
@::Enters after the others::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@ALL:  Please sit down. ::looking up at them::

Host LoDuca says:
@Ayidee: Not a thing. It's all clicks and whistles to me. Oh well, I will just enjoy a good sit over here before the show starts.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
OPS: Yes I heard that. Well lets go then. What are we waiting for? BTW how is your a, little, a your back doing?

CNS_Wells says:
@::Looks at ADM trying to get a clue::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: takes a seat and takes a deep breath.  Normally he would enjoy sitting with the Admiral but today was just not one of those days. ::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@::takes a seat and waits for the Admiral to begin::

CNS_Wells says:
@::Sits::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::she announces to the crew to prepare for Shore leave and  she begins locking down her pertinent systems.::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Stood up and walked towards the TL.:: OPS: I will get hold of the Turbolift.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@LoDuca: Oh, the show already started.  It started when your people hung you out to flap in the wind.  And it continued when you were RIGHT...WHERE...WE...THOUGHT...YOU'D...BE!  Welcome to the universe of the flawed.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@ALL:  As of now, you are not to speak to me about the upcoming inquiry of Tio.  I will be on the board, so I do not want to be seen as improper.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
FCO:  My back is fine.  It won't be much longer until my daughter is born.  ::she follows the FCO::

Host LoDuca says:
@::looks over at Ayidee and just smiles, motioning to his ears as if he had headphones on::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Enters the TL:: OPS: Oh well that is good news to hear.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CTO:  You are NOT to go anywhere near LoDuca.  No one from the Cherokee is, and I will have anyone's head AND career if they do without expressed permission from me.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
FCO:  My husband can't wait as well as our nearly 3 year old twins.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@:: bites his lip, nodding instead. ::

CNS_Wells says:
@ADM: Does the Captain have good representation yet, Ma'am?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@::Smiles, looking back at him.::  LoDuca: Tell me, how does it fail to see everything you worked for go up in smoke?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@::looks at the Admiral with anger in his eyes, he knows that she is just as upset as he is but she can do nothing about it.::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::Sticks out a hand to the OPS and nods.:: OPS: Apologize for earlier. Sorry stupid from me.  I think we are all a bit tense.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CNS:  Yes he does.  The board of Inquiry will be this afternoon and 1500.  This will be a closed hearing.  I will apprise you when you will testify at that hearing.

Host LoDuca says:
@::ignores Ayidee and begins to pray in a very low voice::

CNS_Wells says:
@::Looks at CTO:: CTO: Shouldn't you tell her? ::Said discreetly::

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
FCO:  When it comes to LoDuca, the tension does always flare up.  And don't worry about what happened earlier, that is in the past where it belongs.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@LoDuca: For what it's worth, I thought you'd cost us more.  ::Slips onto the bed.::

CNS_Wells says:
@ADM: Thank you Ma'am. I look forward to meeting with them.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@Adm: Ma'am, I was at the brig to interrogate LoDuca briefly before we arrived.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@::raises her eyebrows::  CTO:  And?

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@Adm: Nothing.  The man is either faking it or he's finally lost his last marble.  I ended up putting back to sleep.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CTO:  And your conclusion is?

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@Adm: Honestly?

Host LoDuca says:
@Ayidee: How does it feel to know that you have stopped nothing? How does it feel to know that when the reckoning comes you will be left burning in the hell of your own design?

CNS_Wells says:
@::Smiles at CTO, admiring his honesty::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@::nods::  CTO:  In as few words as possible Commander.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@Adm: In my opinion, he's unbalanced, but still fit to be tried for his crimes.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
OPS: Roger that sand over it. Lets walk to SB33. Shall we? The Turbolift is awaiting your orders ma' am.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
FCO:  Be my guest, you give the command to the Turbolift.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@Adm: I also would like to request access to Security personnel records on all officers that will have contact with the prisoner.

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@LoDuca: I am not ashamed of what I've paid.  I learned my lesson a long time ago, and what I did, the system I had to break, I broke the tip to protect the foundation.  And how does one burn in a pounding rain?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@::nods again::  ALL:  As I said, I want to hear nothing else.  I think you know how I feel about the matter in question.  Apprise your crew Trent.  I will see all of you at 1500 hours this afternoon.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@CTO:  Request denied.  You are to have no further contact until this is over Commander.  Is that understood?

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
TL: Docking port.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
@Adm: I will keep my mouth closed for now Admiral, but I will have my say in court. ::gets up to leave:: Adm: Are we dismissed?

CNS_Wells says:
@ADM: We hope you have as much faith that this will all work out for the Captain, as we do. We need that from you, Ma'am ::Smiles::

Host CO_Ayidee says:
@LoDuca: You humans, always think that other beings share your preconceived notions of what you don't know.  The galaxy does not revolve around the Terran system.  In the end, it still moves.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
::the TL moves::  FCO:  See, I knew you could do it.  Now let’s head to the Promenade on the Station to meet up with the others.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@Adm:  I understand, Admiral.  However may I point out that the brig has been proven not to be as secure as we like.  I would like to know that steps are being taken to prevent breaches from happening.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@ALL:  Dismissed.

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::The FCO smiles.::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
::The TL stops at the Docking Port.:: OPS: We are there.

CNS_Wells says:
@::Great, she's in a worse mood now. Gets up to go:: Self: I tried.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
@::getting up from her desk, she turns her back on them.  Another thing she hates to do, but must::

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
@:: stands up to leave, feeling like his hands are being tied from doing anything that could serve as productive at this moment. ::

FCO_Ens_Zdunovski says:
OPS: I am happy that I am allowed to stay on this ship after my graduation.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  It is now 1500 hours.  Admiral Alexander is on the bench.  The Cherokee crew will be called, one by one.  Tio Ayidee is represented by council.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> Admiral:  I would like to call my first witness, Acting Captain Trent Worthington to the stand.  Bailiff, they witness are outside the court room.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: sits in the chair in the waiting room, going over the department head reports that he now has to go over as acting XO.  Sighing to himself. :: Self: How in the blazes do they keep breaking that sensor pallet?  Ugh.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Bailiff> aCO:  Commander Worthington.  Inside for your testimony.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
::rises and follows the Bailiff::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Bailiff>  aCO:  Raise your right hand and repeat after me.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
::raises his hand::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
ACTION:  The aCO takes the oath.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> aCO:  When you left the Starbase, what orders were given to you by Captain Ayidee?

CNS_Wells says:
::Sitting in the hall outside the proceedings on Starbase 33::

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Prosecutor: That we were to follow our leads and find the criminal LoDuca.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> aCO:  What actions were taken onboard the Cherokee after leaving Starbase 33?

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: looks at the PADD and growls. :: OPS: Am I reading this right.  Your suggesting we replace the communication outlets in sickbay?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Prosecutor: We were successful in bringing in the evil LoDuca and hopefully making the universe a safer place.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
aXO:  If its on the list, then that is what I requested.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> aCO:  I believe you are avoiding my question Commander.  Were any special procedures taken?

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
OPS: Kyleigh, Engineering is still waiting for the new CEO to come aboard.  Until that time I can't have them replacing all those relays without shutting sickbay down.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Prosecutor: Could you ask a less vague question? A lot of things happened after we left the Starbase.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> aCO:  Commander Worthington, was the Cherokee put into communications blackout or not?

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
aXO:  Mark, we are on a Starbase, for goodness sake, while we are here, I figure it would be a good idea to get the necessary repairs done while we are still docked.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Prosecutor: Yes, we were put under communications blackout which is normal when following undercover organizations.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> aCO:  Do you or anyone in the crew, check to make sure you HAD orders, other than from your Captain, that you were to pursue LoDuca?

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Prosecutor: Why would I question my Captain's orders? How would the chain of command function if we did not trust one another?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> Admiral:  Would you direct the Commander to answer yes or no?

Host CO_Ayidee says:
::Smiles at the answer.::

Host Adm-Alexander says:
aCO:  Please answer the prosecutor's question with yes or no.

Defense_Neaj_Lav says:
Prosecutor: With the facts in evidence, can I ask what the point of these questions is?  Facts in evidence are not debated.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> aCO:  Commander, is it not also true, that until you received those orders from your Captain, the crew was under the impression that Starfleet Command had turned down a request to follow LoDuca?

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
:: groans and leans his head back. :: OPS: I know where we are.  I've also got the Science Department asking for a new refit of the deep space telemetry palate.  Engineering wants us to take the warp core down for vital restorations of the Dilithium crystal chamber.  Its like, grrr.  How does Trent do this?

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Defense:  Please direct your questions to me Councilor, not to the prosecution.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
aCO:  Answer the last question.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
aXO:  Would you just relax.  Let the Station Crew assist our crew, that way the repairs will be done before you know it.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Prosecutor: I could not definitely answer yes or no on that one. I do think most of us were aware of that fact.

Defense_Neaj_Lav says:
Adm: Fine, then what is being accomplished here?  These points are not debated by the defense.  Captain Ayidee has acknowledged the actions in question, and has clearly outlined how he kept his crew out of the loop.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
OPS: Sorry, just...not looking forward to going in there.  Not right now. Heck.  Not ever.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> aCO:  And now Commander, were the orders given to you by Captain Ayidee delivered to him by Starfleet Command, or did he give unlawful orders to his crew?  Be careful in your response Commander.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Defense:  You are out of line Councilor.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Prosecutor: I couldn't say for sure but it would appear he misled us.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> aCO:  Thank you Commander.  
Defense:  Your witness.  ::sits down with a smile on his face::

Defense_Neaj_Lav says:
aCO: Just one question.  Has the person you captured had an uncanny ability to twist Command to get out of these kind of situations?

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
aXO:   Mark, things will work out the way its suppose to.   Now relax, I'm trying to calm down Ryleigh.  We are already nervous enough as it is.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> Admiral:  Objection your honor!  Calls for a conclusion.

Host aCO_Worthington says:
Defense: Yes, he does have low friends in high places.

Defense_Neaj_Lav says:
Admiral: It does not, it calls for a recollection of facts the witness is familiar with.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
<Prosecutor> Admiral:  Admiral!

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Defense:  Unless Commander Worthington is privileged to the thinking of SFC, then objection is sustained.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Defense:  Do have any other questions from this witness?

Defense_Neaj_Lav says:
Admiral: Based on what?  I am not asking for motivation, just numbers.  The Witness has seen what has happened, I am merely putting on the record that there is a history of LoDuca being shielded in the past.

Host aXO_Lt_Cmdr_Hazzard says:
OPS: I guess...I guess your right.  This...this is just not how I thought things would turn out after taking that wreck down.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
Defense:  Sir, you will stop this immediately unless you have proof of your statements.

OPS_LtCmdr_Nash says:
aXO:  I understand.

Host Adm-Alexander says:
aCO:  You are dismissed.
