*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> | *Evidence presented at the trial of Fleet Admiral [[Lucas Vincent|Vincent]] suggested financial links to Federal shipbuilding corporation [[Core Dynamics]].

*A private investigator has uncovered some background to the derelict megaship that recently arrived in this system. Little is known about the [[Adamastor]], which returned on autopilot after two hundred years with no sign of its crew. But an experienced detective has come out of retirement to tackle this mystery. Local resident [[Benjamin Chester]], who was a founding member of the renowned Wallglass Investigations Agency, told [[Journalism|journalists]]: "I convinced the [[Alliance Salvage Guild]] to pass on some serial numbers that they discovered inside the Adamastor. Then I started scouring databases, interviewing sources and, well, doing my old job. The megaship was owned by a corporation called [[Azimuth Biochemicals]]. This was taken over by a similar company called [[Pharmasapien]], but both were liquidated long ago. No mission records exist, but service crew reports mention that the Adamastor's passengers included scientists, engineers and some kind of military. Eventually I unearthed a flight plan, logged in October 3111. It plotted a course toward [[Barnard's Loop]] with fuel for approximately 370 light years, and was scheduled to pass by the HIP 39748 and HIP 33386 systems. I'm way too old to head out there myself, but l hope someone can use this info, and help satisfy my curiosity about what happened all those years ago."<ref>[https://www.reddit.com/r/EliteDangerous/comments/jkeowd/secrets_of_the_adamastor_chukchan_local_news/ | *A private investigator has uncovered some background to the derelict megaship that recently arrived in this system.

*President [[Gibson Kincaid]] has been removed from office after a majority vote in the [[Alliance Assembly]], following charges of treason, murder and corruption. The date of his trial is expected to be confirmed soon. [[Alliance Interpol]] confirmed that Kincaid was detained while attempting to flee his personal estate on [[Zaonce]]. A firefight broke out between Interpol agents and emissaries from the [[President of the Alliance|Office of the Alliance President]], acting as Kincaid's personal bodyguards. Several fatalities were later confirmed. A number of influential corporate and political figures who supported Kincaid's conspiracy to gain executive control of the [[Alliance]] have also been arrested, including a senior director at the [[Bank of Zaonce]]. Prosecutions are expected to rely heavily on the recent testimony of Admiral [[Frederick Yamamoto]] and a detailed report provided by the Wallglass Investigations Agency. [[Tashmira Silva]], who privately commissioned the report, told the media: "I am satisfied that Kincaid will at last face justice for his crimes, including my sister's murder. [[Fazia Silva|Fazia]] championed fairness, and succeeded as an entrepreneur by believing in others, she would be pleased to know that the Alliance has been purged of such a corrupt presence."<ref>[https://community.elitedangerous.com/galnet/uid/5d0239210af2d9467f36c791 GalNet: President Kincaid Impeached]</ref> | *President [[Gibson Kincaid]] has been removed from office after a majority vote in the [[Alliance Assembly]], following charges of treason, murder and corruption.
