A New Way Forward for Freedom.

On year 26 day 322, Supreme Commander Jonas Kanuteau uncovered a plot and took immediate action. The plot consisted of several Faction Advisory Panel members of the Rebel Alliance violating the law. After ensuring the safety of the Rebel Alliance citizens, an investigation was performed by the former Director of Intelligence and a shocking conclusion was made.

Charges were filed on Coren Rinou for the following alleged crimes: 5.4. TREASON 5.11 MEMBERSHIP OF SUBVERSIVE ORGANIZATION 4.4. GRAND THEFT; PETTY THEFT 5.7. HINDERING PROSECUTION 5.14. OFFICIAL MISCONDUCT 5.15. CORRUPTION 5.1. FAILURE TO FOLLOW REBEL ALLIANCE REGULATIONS

Charges were filed on Orion Chran for the following alleged crimes: 5.4. TREASON 5.11 MEMBERSHIP OF SUBVERSIVE ORGANIZATION 5.7. HINDERING PROSECUTION 5.14. OFFICIAL MISCONDUCT 5.15. CORRUPTION 5.1. FAILURE TO FOLLOW REBEL ALLIANCE REGULATIONS

Currently the former Supreme commander and Deputy Supreme Commander are utilizing all of their influence to hold the Rebel Alliance in limbo in stalled Advisory panel votes. This has created some uncertainty for the Rebel Alliance moving forward, while they openly defy laws they helped write and pass. We asked the Supreme Commander for a quick comment on his opinion. 

However, the way the law is written, even if acquitted of all charges, they both have unanimously been voted out of the faction advisory panel by the RAC. Their insistence to stay is the action of a desperate person who knows they’ve been caught.

This will be a trying time for the Rebel Alliance and all of those who believe in freedom. Tyranny is not exclusive to the Empire itself, it can be found in any corner where darkness sets.  ”

Having acknowledged the issues within his own government, the Supreme Commander immediately started working on temporary legislation that would allow the common sentient to defend their rights and freedoms against all tyrants.
