Active Research and Interesting Pursuits Pt. 2

by Doctor Ella Lister

Daniel gave me the information he has obtained while in Elysium. The information he provided is as follows:
 
Rutledge has been on the force some time, but hasn't advanced very far. He puts in the bare minimum and most people seem to like him. Based on his social media habits he is gullible but generally the typical boomer. Mostly he shares memes of American flags and crosses, but he generally steers clear of controversial topics.
 
Officer Chatham Sargasso is a relatively new recruit, he has already faced several disciplinary actions and his last job was working at a mobile phone store. He was let go for sexually harassing a customer. Based on his social media he... well he is trash. He is barely literate and his feed is filled with racist, homophobic garbage, but also memes about god and not judging anyone, also weed, dirt bikes, and him shirtless... sooooo many pictures of him shirtless. He has obviously been in and out of multiple relationships and every one of them is apparently a "crazy bitch" and he brags about cheating on them constantly. He brags about his brother who works at some local church who "keeps his soul safe for me while I fuck bitches and enjoy my life" .
 
Dr. Deborah Hanover has ZERO social media presence and there seems to be very little anyone has to say about her. Neither positive or negative. The only information you gather is from her public profile through academic searches. You are able to find her listed in a wide array of research papers and the expected topics, but there are hundreds.
 
I sadly don't have the knowledge to parse this adequately for you but can direct you to any of it.
 
While his efforts and any information is greatly appreciated, I am frustrated.
 
When I had originally decided on this course of action, it had seemed very straightforward. This endeavor is becoming all the more complicated with each move that is made, and the lack of information is making the most logical plan of action difficult to determine. I can hope Colin will have a bit more information on Dr. Hanover, but I am no longer especially hopeful. The fact that there is little in the way of readily accessible information, and the difficulty in obtaining the information we have, has lead me to suspect supernatural involvement. I will continue to pursue my secondary plans, but will need to make the Prince aware of my suspicions.
 
I spoke with a number of kindred about infiltrating the protesters - I contacted Marie specifically as it is the kind of mischief she is want to enjoy - and attempting additional utilization of the guards, as my initial attempt with Officer Sargasso did not bear fruit. Ava expressed interest in using her charms, and when given all the relevant intel expressed a want to kill him and be done with it - I do not have a problem with that eventuality, I would prefer it if she would wait until he can be made use of first.
 
On the subject of Ava - I will be meeting with her and Quentin this evening to investigate the police raid on Wild Camp. I had also contacted them about ancient texts received by WVU, whether they will want my continued assistance is questionable for this.
 
Two new kindred presented to Elysium: Kenzai and Wilhelm. Kenzai is fresh from the embrace and does not know anything - it has been luck that has kept her from breaching the masquerade. I have made myself available to provide any information she may need going forward. I explained clans, our [basic] origins, and that feeding should be done often and in secret. I have not explained the Masquerade as yet, but will endeavor to do as quickly as possible. It is my hope that her Sire can be identified and sanctioned - preferably killed. Wilhelm stated he is a Caitiff and has indicated he would like to look into the Wild Camp Raid as well.
 
Daniel has indicated he would be attempting to access the camera feeds for the hospital in order to assist in the entry of the suit and obtaining any electronically stored information.
 
This is looking to be a very busy week.
