Title: Vice City Police Department v. [DC]Rapture, [DC]Pups, et al.
Post by: stormeus on February 19, 2012, 11:29:01 pm
From: Vice City Police Department Headquarters
1 Washington Square
Washington Beach, Vice City

To: Vice City Justice Department
23 Havana Highway
Downtown, Vice City

Earlier today, the 19th of February, 2012, a band of nine (possibly more) armed criminals attempted to invade and overrun the federally held Vice City Police Department headquarters in Washington Beach. They breached the building by using grenades to blow down the doors, which also inflicted moderate structural damage which has been paid for using state funds. Not only that, but several officers died trying to defend themselves and other fellow officers while the attack was ongoing.

All officers in the building were held hostage while they attempted to search for an FBI agent, whose identity remains unknown to both the police department and, presumably, the defendants. Following this, they proceeded to stop officers from entering or exiting the building, and were quick to gun down anyone who attempted to fight them. We've identified that they've used M4 and M60 assault rifles and sawnoff "stubby" shotguns during this heinous event.

An initial attempt to hold them down failed, as the police department was heavily outnumbered, and the building was surrounded. A second attempt to hold down the criminals partially succeeded, but they ultimately escaped and evaded their crimes.

Security cameras within the building had captured the event, and the footage is available for viewing at the following websites:
http://youtu.be/ZpSNBn_RFUc (http://youtu.be/ZpSNBn_RFUc)
http://youtu.be/RqdsSZp0LEE (http://youtu.be/RqdsSZp0LEE)

Therefore, we request that the Vice City Police Department is granted an arrest warrant for the following individuals with their respectively listed crimes against the state:

[DC]Pups / [DC]Giant

[DC]Dodo

[VU]Brian

Additionally, we request $1,500,000 in total punitive damages, or about $350,000 per individual, given the collective wealth of those involved. These punitive damages would not be paid to the prosecution, but simply removed from their bank accounts and transferred to the state. These damages are intended to prevent the defendants and any other criminal faction from attempting similar actions again.

The following individuals are considered key witnesses to the incident:

Signed on behalf of the Vice City Police Department,

Please note that I was killed during this incident, therefore, as said a million times before.

The submission of this case has been approved, and is backed up by the Vice City Police Department, and through that the state.

We believe it is a direct form of domestic terrorism towards the United States of Argonath.

on my crime assessment i merely acted on self defense so i shouldn't be convicted of homicide. and further more i merely stepped in the building confused wondering why everyone was mostly behind the desk.

"and were quick to gun down anyone who attempted to fight them"
Of course we are going to gun down someone who is trying to shoot at us. but none the less its the corrupt ways of the VCPD and other "Federal" buildings. P.S. your missing some more names or is it just me?

Well, if the VCPD is being accused for corruption, or you are accusing the state for corruption perhaps that's another matter, and one that we would be able to deal with in a separate case?

Sir, from the security footage you did seem prepared, however, and not like our... usual visitor.
I mean no offence by this.

P.S. your missing some more names or is it just me?

Are you willing to confess other associates in this deed?
We believe that many were linked or are part of a particular group/gang.

The video evidence seems to contradict this, as we do hold evidence of you corresponding with the criminals, specifically when you cooperated with blocking the locker room so that police officers couldn't leave the building.

I, Kessu from Eighth Avenue Furies (no current address or mailbox), got killed in an intensive chase after the situation.

I was shot down, wounded badly by [WS]Legend himself and finished off by an freelance officer whose name I cannot recall. There were also other officers and [MoD]ferrari32 to witness my death (that sounds stupid to write).

Thank you.


I have cash on negative anyways, bank atleast is balanced at 0

The prosecution asserts that Legend was idle at the time of the incident, so this couldn't have happened.

Legend indeed was idle when we attacked the police station. I was one of the few who got away from there alive (read; not counting the insane numbers of dead officers).

Legend chased me to my bitter death after playing with you cops like 10-20 minutes after the attack.

I'll wait for Legend's confirmation on this one. I'm sure he remembers how I said "I only saw one cop but suddenly there were 4 of them"

EDIT: Also, Rapture said himself that he was killed by a random DMing "officer." However, I've heard that the court doesn't accept rulebreaking as evidence, so it's possible that Rapture may continue to be listed as a defendant.

Additionally, we request $3,000,000 in total punitive damages, roughly $428,571 per individual, given the collective wealth of those involved.
Three Million Argonath Dollar? This is pathetically exaggerated as no damage costs round to this, defiantly considering only one building is involved. You could rebuild several skyscrapers around the Downtown district with such amount of money.

I would also point out that you have no knowledge of the current wealth of those involved. Judging by their clothes, I doubt they have much money at all. I investigated further by searching for the addresses of the defendants, and found that the majority are currently living in small flats in Downtown or have no listed address at all. I think the charges should be reconsidered, and made at a more realistic value, taking aboard the state of the individuals wealth.

Still, I was a wanted person and this officer just appeared to be doing his work as I held a weapon and others assaulted the PD, and I showed no sign to comply, as stated in the court case.
So therefore, I can't really claim that (I did, until I tossed this around my head) to be death match.

I was on the bank robbery too, but that was later on. Correct.

I'm not certain it was Legend who chased me, but I am 100% certain it was Legend who shot me down (giving the freelance officer a chance to rip my head off with his shotgun) as I tried to go and have business with ferrari which is irrelevant to this case and shall not be discussed further.

Prior to your post, the punitive damages were lowered to $2,500,000 from $3,000,000. However, I would like to point out you have no knowledge on my knowledge of their wealth, as I have irrefutable proof that the defendants hold many (often expensive) properties and vehicles. This information has been taken from the city's public property and vehicle registration databases.

You seriously count my trashcan as valuable property?

Van is stol... borrowed from a friend who has now moved abroad. PCJ has always been mine. PnS is EAF property and I only have the name in the paper due to legal problems that would occur if someone had two businesses in Vice City.

Which means all I own is the top-class hyperbike that I am so freaking good with, making my wealth around one hundred thousand dollars.

I own no clothes what so ever, I can barely stay alive eating what people throw in the trashcan.. You really need to rethink about your request of payment, or divide it according to the wealth of the said people.

As I said, I am on negative in cash.

Also my death certificate, which has conveniently disappeared from Goverment's logs, proofs that I was indeed shot down by an LEO when I was already greatly wounded and would probably be dead anyways.

As far as we know, the VCPD HQ in Washington Beach was attacked during the evening, an attack that came (mostly) unawares to anyone within the building i.e. a member of the police.

We do not believe it was prompted, either, and hold suspicions that it may be linked to a greater scheme - connected to a number of individuals and gangs/groups that operate in parts of the city, often associated with illegal activities.

How so? You only saw greasers that work at a petrol station for $40 a day trying to get an uprising.

I will agree with Klaus on this one, back it up with evidence.

The police have had (and concluded) investigations regarding possible associates of certain members that may have been involved in this.
We may have to open further cases to prove every point, although some have already spent their time in prison or through other means.

It's still an asset which you own.

So you assert that the Eighth Avenue Furies, by far the wealthiest crime syndicate in Vice City, which you confirm you're a member of, would offer you no financial aid at all?

EDIT: Also, there have been investigations into the criminal activities of EAF and DC, not available to public view, which would affirm similar incidents. Does anyone remember the El Guerillas riots?

Some, or most of EAF are not part of El Guerrillas. I was the one to .. negotiate five of them off the streets.

I trust EAF would make any decision necessary according to the situation.

Also I don't confirm anything.

Unless you have proofs to back up the criminal activity, along with "similar situations" accusations, they are irrelevant.

It was simply a response to Klaus' inquiry, which is irrelevant to this case, full stop. Also, El Guerilas was being used as an example of a similar incident -- I'n not accusing anyone here of having been a member of the riots.

I reviewed some/all of the evidence submitted for this case myself, and I think there is quite a lot going on in there that could do with answering.

As for 'El Guerrillas', considered by some as a breed of "activists", they were managed in the end by the department, and they are little threat to public safety, we believe.

Any other situations, I believe would be irrelevant to this incident itself. While it could potentially add to further charges, it is more than likely that they have already been investigated and concluded, with legal punishments already given.
It could not lessen what took place, however? If anything, it may become worse.

Edit: Pretty much the same as above post, just came in.

Witnesses that you have provided to this case are dead. All except one.

Officer [WS]Verz got sniped infront of VCPD HQ, proven by over a handfull of officers.
Officer [WS]Legend got sniped infront of VCPD HQ, proven by over a handfull of officers.
Officer Max.Cipone got killed in the locker room of VCPD HQ, proven by your now-dead witnesses.
Member of the SWAT team DaniGold got sniped infront of VCPD HQ, proven by over a handfull of officers.

Also I edit my statement just a little bit. It wasn't Legend who shot me down, I was killed by officer [D.R]Dany infront of VCPD HQ at the time of sniper shots. Also I was unarmed and standing still, ready to surrender. But hey, I guess I couldn't surrender considering I AM DEAD. Proven by many LEOs.

Klaus also saw atleast some of these kills that happened. (Of this, I am not sure of, you should ask him)

I think it would depend what, if any of those (if valid) are relevant to this case?
I must say that I was not involved in the incident itself (being present in the building as an idle), and know of it through evidence and the investigation itself.

Of course, the damage it has had on the department is not void, however.

Reality of the server means that we can die infinite amount of times, but we technically cannot sway the way in which continuity of roles work.

The sniping was continuous events of this "break in and locking up VCPD". Loose ends got cut out. Only witness you have is officer STALKER whose mental well being is not that good (maybe). He may be sided with the Goverment due to other court case, making him an invalid witness, sort of.

This couldn't have happened because Klaus was inactive for the entire duration of the incident. Legend was inactive for the entire duration of the incident. There were no snipers present, but I will acknowledge Max.Cipone's death as it was shown clearly in the video.

If any of this actually occurred, it wouldn't be continuous with this situation, but with another situation, such as the bankrob you say occurred after this one. Therefore, their witness reports would not be voided. Otherwise, it would be as if I said your comments were void because, say, you drowned a few minutes ago.

The fact that the same 'riot' group that attacked the VCPD also attempted to demolish the pre-ceremony, sniping officers and eye-witnesses of the situation.

And I would also like to point out (as I mentioned before) that I was killed by [RO]Alex, I was murdered trying to evade my crime, infront of VCPD, at the stairs.

I think we are receiving a direct presentation (or confession in some cases?) of some possible other offences?
If such individuals are and have committed offences like these, I am sure they have done so before and I wouldn't be surprised if it happened again, provided that they were allowed to endanger the public further.

Surely, simply unpausing my game doesn't mean I should be sniped continuously?

First there was this VCPD incident as Legend likes to call it :D

Then admins took action when a little hell broke loose on the server. I got killed in that shizzlefest by [D.R]Dany the Freelance officer (who does not btw have forum account or any sorts).

After it snipers started popping down the heads of key witnesses (still the same group of people acting) and you can sum up 1+1 yourself I hope.

Same group takes over VCPD at the day of Ceremony for cops. Of which after they snipe the valid witnesses that were there and somehow survived. After the ceremony someone blew up half of your VCPD staff, including two casualties and 5 (atleast) major injuries.

I don't see any problem in here. I and Rapture died, snipers cleaned the witnesses. I think this case can be closed due to lack of participants in court.

This is where the incident referred to here should've ended. Otherwise we're just counting everything that's ever happened on the server was one big incident. The award ceremony was an official server event, and any interference would've been a violation of server rules, hence void in court. Admin interference showed that there was rulebreaking involved, which is (apparently) void in court as well.

The snipers didn't interfere at the event, but before the event. Just wanted to make that clear.

The line should be drawn when admin interference began, because from that point on, everything is muddled.

It began even before we entered the PD.

If Legend and Klaus, the only admins online aside from Kessu, had been inactive for the entire duration of that moment, how could they have interfered?

Klaus and Legend were not only admins online :(
inb4 someone says I am only a moderator

The line "does not have to be drawn" when admins take action. Admins took action mostly against players that were not even present in the event of 'VCPD incident'. All were LEOs at the time, who were shooting at each others. Even if Admins start to take action against heavy rulebreaking, it does not mean roleplay is over at the same moment. Otherwise roleplaying "bigger" scenes such as this would not be possible, especially in VCMP since most servers in VCMP are Deathmatch oriented, Argonath being the only roleplay server in official list.

This already starts to go off-topic and I am sure you understand what I mean Stormeus..

Not that the situation necessarily ends when someone throws a /c warn, but you said that all hell had broken loose, so I'm assuming that the situation had gotten too out of hand to properly continue. For example, if all those [RO]'s hadn't spawned as cops and suddenly shot everyone, the situation would've ended much differently.

Yes, this has drifted off-topic, but for the sake of trying to establish when/where one moment begins and where another ends so we can continue this without future complaints about "he killed me, this guy isn't dead, this guy is, voided evidence."

Regardless, I still contest the deaths of Kessu and Rapture within the context of this court case.

[RO]s were cops earlier too, and first shot towards us was made by [D.R]Dany (>.>) and then we annihilated the PD, some died outside, some made it out alive. When new players start DMing because we had roleplay based shizzlelordnut situation, it does not mean that roleplay ends. As Klaus said, it usually is considered until someone dies or leaves the server.

VCPD buildings are considered as safe harbours for the community, and all are welcome to visit for official reasons.
The general public and police personnel should have the right to treat it in that way.

The VCPD HQ, of all places should be a safe and secure environment. The acts by the said individuals, this encroachment of a government building has definitely changed the above.

Other than damages to law enforcement officers, and possible members of the public, the department has taken a toll as a whole.
The HQ has been closed, or in part, closed along with the nearby area due to extensive structural damages. This not only affects the functioning of the police in the city, but also the public.

The state may decide to remove assets and wealth, as well themselves.
The police don't have to chase anyone down without a very good reason.

Seeing as what has been done to our headquarters, however... it's not really acceptable.

I have seen the evident video footage of the manhunt in the VCMP but this is certainly not on a level of terrorism or anything beyond. Since the police is not capable of handcuffing and imprison somebody in this situation, they truthfully did their job by hunting down the suspects, which should already end things up entirely. The suspects that have died are not able to be a part of this if they passed away, am I right? The demands are too high, the concept of this complaint is mashed up and built on deficient ground. There should of been a better way to point fingers at the accussed.

Brian, the fact that I loaned you money for the Ammunation is irrelevant. I loaned you $50,000, full stop, and regardless, I would've expected you to sell the guns legally. Secondly, walking into a federal building while holding a loaded firearm could be seen as a threat, and not only that, but as with Giant, you complied with the criminals as if they were allies, instead of "defending" yourself as you claim to have been doing. What you were doing was a criminal act.

As for the "expensive" punitive damages, these damages are not supposed to be within an affordable range. The fact of the matter is that their weapons were obtained, directly or indirectly, using money housed within the state's boundaries, or through businesses that they own within state boundaries and were purchased using the state's currency. Allowing them to keep the troves of money and assets that they still have would likely allow for subsequent invasions and other criminal acts by buying more weapons, funding operations, and harbouring other illegal activities.

** Senior Officer [WSt]Shadow stands up.

During all this incident, I wasn't killed at all. So, I want to point out something...


VC:PD was attacked by a group of members identified to belong to DC, the Downtown Criminal Gang.


As stated up there, a big amount of officers have been killed, and a VC:PD HQ has been damaged.
Secondly, walking into a federal building while holding a loaded firearm could be seen as a threat, and not only that, but as with Giant, you complied with the criminals as if they were allies, instead of "defending" yourself as you claim to have been doing. What you were doing was a criminal act.

As for the "expensive" punitive damages, these damages are not supposed to be within an affordable range. The fact of the matter is that their weapons were obtained, directly or indirectly, using money housed within the state's boundaries, or through businesses that they own within state boundaries and were purchased using the state's currency. Allowing them to keep the troves of money and assets that they still have would likely allow for subsequent invasions and other criminal acts by buying more weapons, funding operations, and harbouring other illegal activities.

Now I'm pretty sorry that I had to go off-duty, and couldn't help out. But I saw the criminal gangs breaking into VC:PD armed to teeth, which is proven as an official threat and may be sued by LEOs.

The defense has moved to null a witness' testimony for not being present until after the snipers arrived. This proves that the incident ended when the snipers arrived. Therefore, many of the criminals being prosecuted, as well as key witnesses, are still alive in this context, and we plan to continue this case accordingly.

[DC]Rapture and [EAF]Kessu have been removed as co-defendants after concluding that they really had died during the incident. Our demands have been lowered to $1,500,000 in punitive damages, which would come out to $350,000 per individual should they choose to pay it that way. We will also continue to demand arrest warrants for the remaining defendants. Their charges have been updated in the original post.

With that being said, all of their testimony, evidence, and other court statements up to this point and from here on out are legally null and void. The remaining co-defendants are as follows.

Technically, if you died in something unconnected to the roleplay/event in question, it doesn't cross you off the list.

Otherwise, the state could consider removing previously owned assets/wealth of the "dead" - they won't need it anymore either, in that case?

guns are legal in Vice City. asfar as i walk with guns doenst mean im going to attack people/cops.

Guns are legal provided that you obtained them through legal means (i.e. a certified firearms supplier), and are holding them through legal means.

That gives you no right to walk around in public carrying them, and most of all not in state buildings.


I have seen the evident video footage of the manhunt in the VCMP but this is certainly not on a level of terrorism or anything beyond.

Seizing the state's police headquarters is something rather more than a petty crime.
This is very much an act of (domestic) terrorism - as terrorism conducted against one's own state/people... as assumed from the information.

We're not suing you for jumping off the bridge, we're suing you for acts of domestic terrorism. The fact that you were punished for jumping off the bridge is great, but it's because you jumped off the bridge that you can't say you were really dead. If everyone did that, the legal system is useless.

we're suing you for acts of domestic terrorism. The fact that you were punished for jumping off the bridge is great, but it's because you jumped off the bridge that you can't say you were really dead. If everyone did that, the legal system is useless.
again i got KILLED by ARPD Cadet Max.Cipone.

Can a Judge step in and end this already?

Could atleast two people of each side (police / criminals) write up who was killed by whom (in their point of view) ?

looks like it's useless then, since you can't sue him if he died...

(You using the abbreviation POV frightens me ... and I am sure you know why :lol: )

Well, then what is this mess about Brian still being involved? And why won't Giant, Dodo and the rest of the police stand up and speak up? It's a court case, not a dispute by choice to join.

He committed suicide (which is against server rules and therefore can't be used as evidence), then confirms he returned after death, another violation of server rules, then claims he got killed by Max.Cipone. His testimony is contradictory and unreliable.

Giant and Dodo are aware of the case, but are not speaking as much as the other defendants involved.

Police allowed to return after death; not sure what court procedure is
ARPD Officer STALKER survived the entire ordeal, but the defense moved to invalidate his testimony due to "incompetence." Also, considering Brian was a sniper killing remaining officers (confirmed by himself), despite returning after death, he is still able to be pursued due to the murders he committed then.

For the record, the defense has absolutely no physical evidence of their own.

  • [EAF]Kessu (shot outside PD)
  • [DC]Rapture (shot outside PD)
  • [VU]Brian (committed suicide while wanted and therefore we don't consider him as actually dead)
Police allowed to return after death; not sure what court procedure is
  • Max.Cipone (shot inside locker room)
  • [RO]THE_DARK (shot near end of security footage)
  • [RO]ALEX (shot near end of security footage)

if Brian commited suicide+got punished + get killed upon re-entering, then you can't sue him.

Rulebreaking aside -

If you weren't back in the situation, then technically it can be considered as an altogether different matter, but it still leaves you in connection to the case.


The police has a number of pieces of evidence (already presented in court), and this has affected the VCPD as a whole.

I couldnt assasinate the person on that invasion. the day after the invasion, i tried to complete my job but i got arrested and questioned about this case and my connection with it. After that i got jailed and the person who gave me the assignment got trailed later. Again this can be confirmed by ARPD Officer Verz and the other Officers who were there on this scene. (i believe STALKER was on this scene to)

You claim to have died in the first situation, then committed suicide, then returned, then got killed in the "second" situation, then got jailed in the situation. Every statement you make contradicts the last, making you an unreliable character witness.

Regardless, if you were jailed, you are still subject to the punitive damages, but not the arrest warrant.

mhm no.
you can't limit him to one RP background, that would be against Argonath Vision. If he has died and does not wish to keep his background in which he demolished VCPD, it's up to him

in fact you shouldn't have sued him in the first place, as as you said yourself, he rulebreaked by jumping off the bridge, then RETURNED after death (which totally ceases any RP on his part) and he has been punished for it; that being said, you can't sue him.

I don't think there's any 'Argonath Vision' being overstepped here.

Forcing someone to roleplay would be a different matter. But, related to this case, contradictory statements can be scrutinised by court officials with ease.

Post by: Marcell on March 12, 2012, 11:09:21 pm
the fact that Brian has died by rulebreaking then re-entered should totally 'delete' any part of his roleplay since it wasn't valid

anyways even if you want to sue him you still need to engage in-game with proper roleplay terms (helo sir gud dey dis vcpd pay monies or we jail okey)

at least that's how it was in the older days - if someone didn't pay up a loan, and he was active on the server, police was requested to handle it, they didn't just magically take cash from his account

If you died in a situation, you can't be tried, or act as a witness, or otherwise be involved in a court case for that situation.

Seeingly as we have no current active judges, besides from Legend, who has chosen to not interfer directly with this case and instead, be apart of the plantiff, i'll be presiding over this case from now on. Any questions or thoughts are to be sent directly to me. I'll be fully reviewing the video, the evidence presented and the arguments through this 8 pages and i'll be giving my imput tomorrow.

Chief Justice, Leonardo
