*Former [[Core Dynamics]] CEO [[Jupiter Rochester]] has received a summary judgement for multiple crimes against the [[Federation]]. The [[Federal Justice Department]] gave this statement: "The facts in the case of Jupiter Rochester are self-evident. His principal role regarding [[Starship One]] and [[Jupiter Division]] make him guilty of treason, mass murder and many other crimes. He will serve a solitary life sentence in a maximum security prison." [[Milandu Okoro]] of the Federal Attorney's Office expressed surprise: "It is highly unusual for the FJD not to litigate such a major case, considering we don't know the full extent of Rochester and [[Lucas Vincent|Fleet Admiral Vincent's]] conspiracies. Unfortunately, our request to open a full investigation has been denied." [[Shadow President|Shadow Vice President]] [[Isolde Rochester]] has reiterated that [[Rochester family|her family]] were not involved with her eldest son's clandestine activities. Core Dynamics is continuing to rebuild after several departments separated to form Jupiter Division. [[Owen McKenna]], the new CEO, has vowed to purge the company of all his predecessor's loyalists. Despite Rochester's failure to build a powerbase in the [[HIP 54530]] system, his manifesto of placing the Federation under direct corporate rule has received praise in some regions. A corporatist movement, founded by commercial networks and civil groups, is gradually gaining popularity.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/60422b82a35452295305a1b4 GalNet: Jupiter Rochester Sentenced to Life Imprisonment]</ref>

*Evidence presented at the trial of Fleet Admiral [[Lucas Vincent|Vincent]] suggested financial links to Federal shipbuilding corporation [[Core Dynamics]]. This significant development was covered by [[Ethan Takahashi]] for The [[Federal Times]]: "The initial investigations around [[Starship One]]'s destruction in 3301 were outlined by the prosecution. When the Federal Attorney's Office revisited this historical data, traces were found of financial transfers routed through non-[[Federation]] banking systems. The FAO brought in the expertise of the [[Wallglass Investigations Agency]], which discovered that these transactions were made via shell companies created by Core Dynamics. Fleet Admiral Vincent, as well as several other naval officers, received billions of credits through these companies that went undeclared. Vincent refused to answer any questions about this evidence, once again claiming that he is the victim of a conspiracy to hand the presidency to [[Felicia Winters]]." Despite multiple requests from the press, Core Dynamics has not made any public comment. There are unverified reports of large-scale activity taking place at some of the corporation’s centres of operation.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/60194d23d0851778df338afc GalNet: Core Dynamics Implicated in Starship One Sabotage]</ref>

*Fleet Admiral [[Lucas Vincent]] of the [[Federal Navy]] will stand trial on the 25th of January, charged with conspiracy to commit murder and treason. The Federal Attorney's Office has successfully obtained a grand jury indictment against Fleet Admiral Vincent. He is accused of arranging the sabotage of presidential vessel [[Starship One]] in 3301, to assassinate then-President [[Jasmina Halsey]]. Although she was later recovered alive, hundreds died when the ship was destroyed in flight. These charges were brought following the trial of [[Rory Webster]], a naval technician who was implicated in the failure of Starship One's [[hyperdrive]] system. Mr Webster confessed his involvement, but offered a plea bargain by providing evidence that he was following clandestine orders from Vincent. The subsequent arrest caused repercussions in military and political circles. President [[Zachary Hudson]]'s long-term association with Vincent resulted in Republican [[Congressman|congressmen]] losing confidence in his leadership, and increased the Liberal Party's popularity. As a naval chief of staff, Fleet Admiral Vincent is the highest ranking Federal military officer to ever stand trial. Media interest remains intense, with much public speculation about corruption among the [[Federation]]'s highest echelons. The trial will take place at the [[Federal High Court]] in [[Olympus Village]] on [[Mars]], and is expected to last several weeks.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5ffc472043077c407858899a GalNet: Date Set for Trial of Fleet Admiral Vincent]</ref>

*Fleet Admiral [[Lucas Vincent]], one of the [[Federal Navy]] chiefs of staff, has been arrested on charges related to the destruction of [[Starship One]]. The trial of Chief Technician [[Rory Webster]] was halted by a plea bargain to reveal who ordered him to sabotage Starship One's hyperdrive in 3301. An update on proceedings was delivered by [[Milandu Okoro]] of the Federal Attorney's Office: "Mr Webster provided evidence that Fleet Admiral Vincent directly commanded him to arrange for Starship One to suffer the same fate as the [[Highliner Antares]]. The orders were allegedly provided on a private channel, accompanied by threats discouraging Mr Webster's refusal. The trial concluded with the judge summarily convicting the defendant of aiding and abetting mass murder. Chief Technician Webster received a lenient sentence of 20 years in prison, in acknowledgement that he performed criminal acts under duress. The [[Federal Intelligence Agency|FIA]] has detained Vincent in a high-security facility, and he has been charged with conspiracy to commit murder and treason. However, the case is likely to take several months to come to trial." There was no comment from President [[Zachary Hudson]], who is believed to be a personal friend of Vincent. A spokesperson for his administration said: "As always, the President has full confidence in our court system to deliver justice."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5f8031b0b1c27315910a85d5 GalNet: Fleet Admiral Vincent Named as Starship One Saboteur]</ref>

*The [[Federal High Court]] trial over the destruction of [[Starship One]] has been temporarily halted following a proffered confession from the defendant. Chief Technician [[Rory Webster]] is charged with mass murder and treason, with testimonials claiming that he ordered his engineering team to sabotage [[Starship One]]'s hyperdrive systems. Crime correspondent [[Ethan Takahashi]] reported for The [[Federal Times]]: "Despite a spirited performance from the defence, highlighting the absence of a sufficient motive, Mr Webster visibly struggled in the dock last week as the technical evidence mounted. Several jury members nodded when the prosecutor called for the death sentence, should the accused be found guilty of slaughtering hundreds. The judge was about to begin her summation, when Mr Webster's defence counsel announced that the defendant now wished to change his plea to guilty and make a full confession in return for clemency, claiming that he had acted on 'orders from the top'. There was much discussion between the judge and legal representatives. Eventually it was agreed that the trial would be suspended while Mr Webster's testimony was taken by the [[Federal Intelligence Agency]], and then a suitable course of action would follow." The Federal Attorney's Office stated that a decision on resuming the trial is expected within a few days.<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5f7ae6605e1f2e7fab6c0a7f GalNet: Revelation Halts Starship One Trial]</ref>
