00:00:03.629 --> 00:00:11.250
This is UCPA officer Alan Parker time is 1800
00:00:11.250 --> 00:00:21.370
hours Sunday August 12th 4046 With most of my
00:00:21.370 --> 00:00:25.370
department having been reassigned to the master
00:00:25.370 --> 00:00:30.839
case Sweeping utility tunnels and Dragon maintenance
00:00:30.839 --> 00:00:36.579
pawns for clues on this serial killer. It's not
00:00:36.579 --> 00:00:40.479
that I do not understand the mandate with 17
00:00:40.479 --> 00:00:48.020
butchered bodies. The degree of mutilations is
00:00:48.020 --> 00:00:56.759
enough to make anyone sweat. But. It's not hard
00:00:56.759 --> 00:01:02.920
to see what this really is. It's theatre. It's
00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:06.079
no secret across the precinct floors or even
00:01:06.079 --> 00:01:10.739
the public that the UCPA barely held its council
00:01:10.739 --> 00:01:15.640
seat during the centenary ballot. One vote and
00:01:15.640 --> 00:01:20.180
a single filthy corporate proxy vote mired in
00:01:20.180 --> 00:01:24.340
bribery and backroom death threats. That lone
00:01:24.340 --> 00:01:28.569
ballot was and is only barrier keeping this entire
00:01:28.569 --> 00:01:35.109
association from being dissolved into scrap sharing
00:01:35.109 --> 00:01:40.650
the same cramped grave as the yoke military alliance
00:01:40.650 --> 00:01:45.189
mega corporations want us off the ledger they
00:01:45.189 --> 00:01:49.549
want their own private military bank they don't
00:01:49.549 --> 00:01:53.090
know what they ask I am not alone when I say
00:01:53.090 --> 00:01:56.209
that I fear what will happen the day the Megacorps
00:01:56.209 --> 00:02:00.250
do get control, when their vanity clouds their
00:02:00.250 --> 00:02:07.209
judgement. Until that day, I will continue to
00:02:07.209 --> 00:02:11.750
serve, and so the brass chases ghosts to justify
00:02:11.750 --> 00:02:19.409
our funding, while I get reassigned due to my
00:02:19.409 --> 00:02:26.939
proclivities. Not that I am arguing Going from
00:02:26.939 --> 00:02:31.860
chasing some corporate killer to some lost adult
00:02:31.860 --> 00:02:37.840
It's good to do some actual police work Someone
00:02:37.840 --> 00:02:49.280
that actually matters This is case 006529 The
00:02:49.280 --> 00:02:54.349
disappearance of Elliot Archer Known on the public
00:02:54.349 --> 00:02:59.210
comms network as Riz, the streamer and content
00:02:59.210 --> 00:03:02.930
maker, one of the tens of thousands that clutter
00:03:02.930 --> 00:03:07.150
up Pacific City's bandwidth with synthetic dopamine
00:03:07.150 --> 00:03:12.550
hits. The Department of Labor loves them, calls
00:03:12.550 --> 00:03:18.840
them essential psychological assets. claims they
00:03:18.840 --> 00:03:25.000
caused a 12 % bump in civilian compliance. I
00:03:25.000 --> 00:03:28.560
call it for what it is, a 20 -something year
00:03:28.560 --> 00:03:32.500
old kid in high -end streetwear selling lies
00:03:32.500 --> 00:03:35.300
to people who have never even felt the cold air.
00:03:37.860 --> 00:03:40.840
Let it be known for the record, I refuse to call
00:03:40.840 --> 00:03:48.139
him by his stage name, Riz. Elliot's brand was
00:03:48.139 --> 00:03:52.159
simple. He claimed to be a survivor of the trenches.
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:55.780
Told his chattened followers he was born in the
00:03:55.780 --> 00:04:00.000
bottom sediment of layer 8. And he clawed his
00:04:00.000 --> 00:04:03.000
way up to Pacific City with nothing but his two
00:04:03.000 --> 00:04:06.819
bare hands. A story we'd all like to fall in
00:04:06.819 --> 00:04:13.039
love with. But anyone with an operational neuron
00:04:13.039 --> 00:04:18.319
knows that's garbage. You don't survive the trenches
00:04:18.319 --> 00:04:21.920
and come out with porcelain skin and a corporate
00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:26.120
paycheck. If you actually did manage to climb
00:04:26.120 --> 00:04:31.860
out of that hell pit, your ID, it already tags
00:04:31.860 --> 00:04:35.199
you as lower tier scum. You get sent straight
00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:37.879
to the asteroid haulers of the offworld strip
00:04:37.879 --> 00:04:42.500
mines. If you're lucky, maybe an intersolar courier
00:04:42.500 --> 00:04:48.680
crew will take you on. Elliot disappeared mid
00:04:48.680 --> 00:04:52.439
-broadcast, a live feed in front of nearly a
00:04:52.439 --> 00:04:57.240
hundred thousand witnesses, but why still remains
00:04:57.240 --> 00:05:03.139
a mystery. I'm keeping the inquiry open. This
00:05:03.139 --> 00:05:14.160
is Parker, signing off of log one. Alan Parker.
00:05:16.610 --> 00:05:25.430
Log 2. Monday, 1800 hours. We managed to find
00:05:25.430 --> 00:05:32.149
Elliot's body. Well, what was left of him? His
00:05:32.149 --> 00:05:34.730
corpse was recovered, wedged between the primary
00:05:34.730 --> 00:05:39.470
trash and takepipes on the lower silt rim, just
00:05:39.470 --> 00:05:44.129
below the residential district 7. This was thanks
00:05:44.129 --> 00:05:47.240
to an anonymous tip. that came through on an
00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:51.500
encrypted board, hours after it was posted online.
00:05:52.759 --> 00:05:57.560
Turns out that after some digging, Elliot's metrics
00:05:57.560 --> 00:06:02.560
were dropping. The comments and public sentiment
00:06:02.560 --> 00:06:06.100
were turning against him, calling him a fraud,
00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:10.879
and demand for proof of his tragic origins was
00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:15.009
skyrocketing. Why suddenly after five years this
00:06:15.009 --> 00:06:20.829
became such an issue I do not know but Terrified
00:06:20.829 --> 00:06:24.490
of losing his sponsor stipend and getting thrown
00:06:24.490 --> 00:06:28.970
into what I assume would be a regular job He
00:06:28.970 --> 00:06:31.670
somehow managed to get his hands on the black
00:06:31.670 --> 00:06:35.790
market transit key This key was the only thing
00:06:35.790 --> 00:06:41.180
left on his body that wasn't destroyed

This key
00:06:41.180 --> 00:06:45.040
linked to an obsolete freight hoist, one that
00:06:45.040 --> 00:06:49.879
rests in Sector 3. Now I still don't know how
00:06:49.879 --> 00:06:52.899
someone like Elliot was able to slip past the
00:06:52.899 --> 00:06:57.120
multiple defences that lay in the inner workings
00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:00.579
of the layer, nor was able to pass through the
00:07:00.579 --> 00:07:04.699
other layers with such precision timing as he
00:07:04.699 --> 00:07:10.730
didn't get guillotined. But he did it, and he
00:07:10.730 --> 00:07:12.910
brought with him his entire hundred thousand
00:07:12.910 --> 00:07:16.470
audience. The coroner's preliminary assessment
00:07:16.470 --> 00:07:22.089
just finished. DNA and facial scans confirm this
00:07:22.089 --> 00:07:26.850
body is in fact Elliot Archer. The wounds are
00:07:26.850 --> 00:07:30.550
chaotic to say the least. Multiple punctual acerations
00:07:30.550 --> 00:07:34.790
from crude and filed iron shanks. Some still
00:07:34.790 --> 00:07:38.279
waged firmly within his body. The coroner estimates
00:07:38.279 --> 00:07:44.360
a mob of at least 14 individual attackers. None
00:07:44.360 --> 00:07:47.759
of the strikes show augment talk or mechanical
00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:51.420
leverage, leading us to believe that these were
00:07:51.420 --> 00:07:55.360
relatively weak individuals, probably no stronger
00:07:55.360 --> 00:07:59.620
than a child of 13 years of age. What is most
00:07:59.620 --> 00:08:03.740
distressing, however, is almost all of the wounds
00:08:03.740 --> 00:08:06.360
are clustered around his shoulders and lower
00:08:06.360 --> 00:08:12.620
abdomen meaning his killers wanted him alive
00:08:12.620 --> 00:08:19.000
inflicted maximum pain coroner unfortunately
00:08:19.000 --> 00:08:24.139
also reports that with his throat slit his jack
00:08:24.139 --> 00:08:28.399
was also fried but it was done in such a way
00:08:28.399 --> 00:08:34.789
that it had to have been purposeful Unfortunately,
00:08:34.850 --> 00:08:38.929
Elliot laid in that ditch, paralyzed as his body
00:08:38.929 --> 00:08:45.929
slowly, slowly shot down on him, unable to even
00:08:45.929 --> 00:08:49.889
call for help. No distress pings on the precinct
00:08:49.889 --> 00:08:54.169
monitors. The raw feed from his missing camera
00:08:54.169 --> 00:08:58.090
drone was intercepted by Pacific City's automated
00:08:58.090 --> 00:09:04.010
firewalls, but it had been scrubbed too. Unrecognizable
00:09:04.010 --> 00:09:07.830
commercial static. Making finding our last of
00:09:07.830 --> 00:09:11.690
that remaining footage my next task. I'm heading
00:09:11.690 --> 00:09:14.149
out to find anyone who might have recorded the
00:09:14.149 --> 00:09:17.610
stream. Any possible moderators, super fans,
00:09:17.789 --> 00:09:21.190
or editors. Surely someone must have a recording
00:09:21.190 --> 00:09:25.769
that pre -exists the data scrub. Parker. Ending
00:09:25.769 --> 00:09:33.169
log two. UCPA officer Alan Parker. it's wednesday
00:09:33.169 --> 00:09:39.450
2100 hours august 14th the funeral was this afternoon
00:09:39.450 --> 00:09:43.269
a public procession as per archers contractual
00:09:43.269 --> 00:09:47.750
clauses with his talent agency there were a lot
00:09:47.750 --> 00:09:53.809
of crocodile tears cameras and recordings alongside
00:09:53.809 --> 00:09:57.509
dozens of other creators rubbing shoulders for
00:09:57.509 --> 00:10:01.240
a lot of high ranking network executives too
00:10:01.240 --> 00:10:03.740
busy looking at their wrist displays to even
00:10:03.740 --> 00:10:09.519
know what was happening. Luckily, I managed to
00:10:09.519 --> 00:10:11.899
corner one of his mod team that attended the
00:10:11.899 --> 00:10:16.000
funeral. I managed to stop them from entering
00:10:16.000 --> 00:10:18.740
the service elevators and disappearing from my
00:10:18.740 --> 00:10:23.580
jurisdiction. I cited Section 2 of the UCPA Moral
00:10:23.580 --> 00:10:29.450
Justice Code and they agreed to help. They shared
00:10:29.450 --> 00:10:32.649
with me an unsanctioned, unscrubbed local data
00:10:32.649 --> 00:10:37.049
cache. I was wrong in my original assessment.
00:10:39.149 --> 00:10:43.590
The unedited recording was nearly six hours long,
00:10:43.929 --> 00:10:46.789
not the original presumed three and a half hours
00:10:46.789 --> 00:10:49.870
with the 30 minutes being 30 minutes of missing
00:10:49.870 --> 00:10:59.149
footage. Due to the Samaritan Act, I wiped the
00:10:59.149 --> 00:11:02.830
kids' network identity from my record. This will
00:11:02.830 --> 00:11:05.309
allow them to keep their job and their identity
00:11:05.309 --> 00:11:09.149
safe. I have no further cause to believe that
00:11:09.149 --> 00:11:12.870
this individual was in any way involved in his
00:11:12.870 --> 00:11:16.990
death. After putting the recording through multiple
00:11:16.990 --> 00:11:21.070
scrubbers and finding the legitimacy of it, I
00:11:21.070 --> 00:11:24.529
sat down and watched all six hours of it, and
00:11:24.529 --> 00:11:28.009
to say the least it is deeply unsettling. Whoever
00:11:28.009 --> 00:11:31.230
this escort was that went down with Elliot didn't
00:11:31.230 --> 00:11:35.710
die alongside him. It would seem they lured poor
00:11:35.710 --> 00:11:39.129
Elliot into this place, and they broke off from
00:11:39.129 --> 00:11:43.289
him at some point. And once the two had separated,
00:11:43.710 --> 00:11:48.049
this is when Elliot seemed to run into troubles.
00:11:49.889 --> 00:11:54.669
But credit where credit is due, Elliot soon found
00:11:54.669 --> 00:11:58.360
his composure and continued filming. It was by
00:11:58.360 --> 00:12:03.580
now the stream had begun to take a turn. The
00:12:03.580 --> 00:12:06.779
trenches don't care about your subscriber tier,
00:12:07.840 --> 00:12:11.559
your wealth or your luxuries. Down there you
00:12:11.559 --> 00:12:15.259
aren't an artist. Your 30 kilos of
salvageable
00:12:15.259 --> 00:12:18.440
muscle waged between two clean optic implants.
00:12:20.320 --> 00:12:23.240
The chat seemed to have figured it out before
00:12:23.240 --> 00:12:28.419
he did. and soon mockery and laughter turned
00:12:28.419 --> 00:12:32.980
to sympathy with people genuinely trying to warn
00:12:32.980 --> 00:12:37.360
Elliot of the dangers it was somewhat heartening
00:12:37.360 --> 00:12:40.559
to see how many people begged him to return and
00:12:40.559 --> 00:12:44.120
the help that he received from them some even
00:12:44.120 --> 00:12:47.860
going so far as to relay detailed maps on how
00:12:47.860 --> 00:12:51.960
he could return safely but it begs to question
00:12:51.960 --> 00:12:55.750
with that sentiment Why were there no distress
00:12:55.750 --> 00:12:59.750
calls logged? Why did nothing reach the authorities
00:12:59.750 --> 00:13:05.409
to reach us to UCPA? A manner for another time,
00:13:05.669 --> 00:13:12.809
but now... For all his vanity, Elliot's camera
00:13:12.809 --> 00:13:17.970
drone had captured something unprecedented. UCPA
00:13:17.970 --> 00:13:25.070
doesn't have a good cartography of layer 8. the
00:13:25.070 --> 00:13:28.490
plankton, the silt, the suspended carbon dust
00:13:28.490 --> 00:13:33.690
and the suffocating heat and humidity rise the
00:13:33.690 --> 00:13:37.990
optical senses of any of the standard surveillance
00:13:37.990 --> 00:13:42.710
units and anything where the capability to record
00:13:42.710 --> 00:13:48.549
seeing is much slower more dense and is often
00:13:48.549 --> 00:13:52.809
shot down or stolen Archer's high -end personal
00:13:52.809 --> 00:13:58.440
drone However, managed to take just under six
00:13:58.440 --> 00:14:02.200
hours of full continuous unedited documentary
00:14:02.200 --> 00:14:08.240
footage of Coral City, but more importantly of
00:14:08.240 --> 00:14:13.179
the trenches itself. Not a complete map of the
00:14:13.179 --> 00:14:16.539
under city, but a pretty good diagnostic one.
00:14:18.799 --> 00:14:23.559
Fortunately, this drone was lost. Just moments
00:14:23.559 --> 00:14:29.600
after capturing the ambush From the scuffle and
00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:32.159
the shuffling of the deformed bodies that attacked
00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:37.419
him It would seem that he fell victim to the
00:14:37.419 --> 00:14:43.019
group known as the rats We haven't seen an organized
00:14:43.019 --> 00:14:48.659
swarm of them near Pacific City and reports from
00:14:48.659 --> 00:14:52.860
the CCPD Elsa said they have been quite quiet.
00:14:53.639 --> 00:14:56.440
They seem to chase him back into the storm drains.
00:14:57.039 --> 00:14:59.539
On the recording, what was remaining of it, you
00:14:59.539 --> 00:15:02.980
can hear him screaming in the dark. I do believe
00:15:02.980 --> 00:15:06.379
he got in a good lick or two. And that was when
00:15:06.379 --> 00:15:13.940
the transmission cut. This is CPA Officer Alan
00:15:13.940 --> 00:15:25.929
signing off of log three. Alan Parker. Log 4.
00:15:26.289 --> 00:15:33.269
Thursday. My final report on case 006529. I tracked
00:15:33.269 --> 00:15:36.450
down the intake pipe that Elliot crawled from.
00:15:37.330 --> 00:15:41.190
I investigated the rust scrapings on the pipes
00:15:41.190 --> 00:15:46.629
and the amount of drag marks within. My original
00:15:46.629 --> 00:15:50.980
assessment was correct. Elliot didn't outrun
00:15:50.980 --> 00:15:54.820
his attackers. It didn't seem that he crawled
00:15:54.820 --> 00:15:57.879
his way back up through the drainage pipe alone.
00:16:00.580 --> 00:16:04.139
If I am to guess, his attackers seemed to have
00:16:04.139 --> 00:16:09.519
followed him. With him being wounded enough,
00:16:10.159 --> 00:16:14.899
or possibly egged on, they violently assaulted
00:16:14.899 --> 00:16:19.980
him, kept him bleeding and in pain, but... did
00:16:19.980 --> 00:16:23.860
not destroy him enough that he couldn't move
00:16:23.860 --> 00:16:28.639
or Elliot laid there for hours unable to move
00:16:28.639 --> 00:16:37.379
alone and terrified I am sorry Elliot truly truly
00:16:37.379 --> 00:16:44.200
I am I looked into the possibility of precinct
00:16:44.200 --> 00:16:48.549
malpractice But despite the hundred thousand
00:16:48.549 --> 00:16:53.250
followers and those screaming for help, apparently
00:16:53.250 --> 00:16:56.129
not a single call was made to the authorities.
00:16:58.690 --> 00:17:01.690
I do not have any evidence to assume otherwise,
00:17:02.409 --> 00:17:08.390
so I have to dismiss it as just bad luck, I suppose.
00:17:12.990 --> 00:17:17.869
Legally, the investigation is now closed, with
00:17:17.869 --> 00:17:20.809
the rats being classified as non -registered
00:17:20.809 --> 00:17:24.609
citizens under the corporate charter. If you
00:17:24.609 --> 00:17:27.549
aren't a citizen, there's no arrest that can
00:17:27.549 --> 00:17:33.130
be made and no warrant can be issued. The corporate
00:17:33.130 --> 00:17:37.029
board and the UCPA don't want to spend one more
00:17:37.029 --> 00:17:44.410
ace chasing this case. so the department solved
00:17:44.410 --> 00:17:47.710
it the way corporate wanted them to solve it
00:17:47.710 --> 00:17:51.170
buried it buried it under 12 drums of industrial
00:17:51.170 --> 00:17:55.609
mercury poured into the intake borehole and then
00:17:55.609 --> 00:17:59.829
sealed the grating shut out of sight off the
00:17:59.829 --> 00:18:03.710
quarterly crime statistics at least the council
00:18:03.710 --> 00:18:10.779
seat is safe but they're up here now walking
00:18:10.779 --> 00:18:14.660
through the crosswalks standing under the street
00:18:14.660 --> 00:18:20.740
lamps wearing dry clothes our clothes blending
00:18:20.740 --> 00:18:26.799
in I don't know what it is that they want but
00:18:26.799 --> 00:18:31.039
if they weren't here before they are now this
00:18:31.039 --> 00:18:43.879
is UCPA officer Alan Parker case file 006529
00:18:43.879 --> 00:18:51.000
disappearance of Elliot Archer case closed ruling
00:18:51.000 --> 00:18:57.920
accidental death some some bullshit
