[Royal Guard] Trials and confrontations at the BDI

[Ayanula ...]

In serving a warrant with Corporal Grafsburg at the Black Dragon Inn on [August 18th, 2009], we failed to find the individual we were looking for [description of Ixyxlo] present amongst the patrons as reported by an informant.

However, we instead encountered the suspected demon [description of Khamalah] noted in an Inn log by a staff member.  The individual approached us, intent unknown, and was greeted in turn with our arrest procedures.  I instructed the suspect to face the wall and interlock her fingers behind her head while Corporal Grafsburg shackled her and disarmed her.  It was at this point that another individual [description of Cain*' follows] approached the arresting officer and demanded to know what we were doing.

I ran interference for the
 Corporal and told [Cain]
 to step aside and back off.  He failed to heed my first warning and after a failed second verbal order was given for him to disperse, I took him down to one knee with my truncheon.

In our arrest of [Khamalah], we were joined by backup consisting of several additional Armsmen, one of whom was Spellcaster Heatherdown, who I instructed to arrest [Cain'] for failure to comply and obstruction of justice.  She was able to shackle the individual without further incident.

Also amongst the company of law enforcement officials present was the Honorable Caladon ul-Carador Lazbek, who wished to sentence the two suspects right there in the Inn. 
 As such, both shackled individuals were brought forth.  [Cain'] pleaded guilty to the two misdemeanor charges and was sentenced to be physically beaten by Corporal Grafsburg by order or the Magistrate.  The other individual [Khamalah], admitted to being a demon, but sentencing was held, as Spellcaster Heatherdown advised the Magistrate regarding the state of the suspected demon.

It was the Magistrate's ruling that the suspected demon be granted probationary freedom for the time being under the court-appointed guardianship of Spellcaster Heatherdown.

In the course of Corporal Grafsburg's duties of carrying out punishment on [Cain'], it was discovered that the individual he was striking was bleeding black blood and bore fangs.  The Honorable Caladon ul-Carador Lazbek found the individual to be guilty of being a
 demon and sentenced him to death - a punishment exacted personally in the Inn.


In conclusion of this report, I want to commend all officials involved in this particular arrest and trial.  This was textbook perfection in cooperation between the judiciary arm of the Crown and law enforcement in Drache.  I must say I deeply wish we saw more of this kind of roll-out in the future when serving warrants.


Respectfully,
~Idelle Sarault, Arms-Lieutenant
