Welcome to the Galactic News Service
Cybot CEO comes out with official statement regarding the death of Amelia Moretti
Posted by: Jeff Froud, Cybot Galactica
Date: Year 19 Day 365 From the High Rise Building 50 flats Galactica Press Office in Pandora's Box on Asher I (122, 302).

This is Jeff Froud from the Galactica Group Press Office, live from the headquarters of Cybot Galactica. The Galactica Group has announced a live press conference just a few hours ago regarding the tragic death of Amelia Moretti and the direct aftermath. This situation has been in the news for four days now, but details were scarce. In just a couple of moments the chain of events will hopefully become clear. It would appear the conference has just started, so let’s cut to that.


Dex: ‘’Good evening, ladies and gentlemen of the press. After discussing the situation with the Board, we have decided to come out with a statement regarding the tragic death of our beloved employee Amelia Moretti. 
On Day 360 of this year, she and her unborn child were found dead on an RMI ship. Rumors of her death quickly spread all across the galaxy since she was a well-known figure in the intergalactic community, with her departure from Black Sun becoming a major story. One of these rumors is that she was murdered by RMI’s co-owner Chrii`kkt Raas as a part of a plot to seize control of the company. I am saddened to say these rumors are true. Raas granted former Galactica Security Services Leader Taranjeek O`Cuinn access to the ship Amelia was on board after it entered an asteroid field, and remotely locked Amelia out of the ships controls. O`Cuinn and Raas arrived on scene with a full medical team, ostensibly to save the life of Amelia and her unborn child after they were attacked by hostile bandits in the asteroid field, however later confessions proved that this was merely a cover in a premeditated assassination. 
The pair attempted to save Amelia’s unborn child using a complex medical procedure with the help of a science team, but ultimately failed. Shortly after her death, the two co-conspirators informed me of the situation, noting that multiple looming issues and potentially catastrophic events for our group had been averted.  I immediately called for an emergency meeting of the Galactica Group Board of Directors, which got incredibly heated to say the least.
Raas testified for the Board, saying that Amelia’s unpredictable behaviour, constant interference and undermining of his leadership and frequent and drastic changes to the company was causing major issues with Raas-Moretti Industries as a whole and he believed they were causing harm to the Galactica Group as a whole in the public sphere. Due to these factors he and O`Cuinn, who had been tasked with the security of our group as a whole, decided it would be a good idea to assassinate her instead of taking it up with me, with the tragic happenings as a result.They planned to use her death to prevent any future catastrophes they believed were likely to happen, as well they believed that in her death they could prevent future aggression by the Black Sun Collective which had our conglomerate listed as official enemies of state and myself with the dubious pleasure of being the sole person considered a Persona Non Grata by the Collective by removing her from the equation which would potentially smooth over all remaining issues the Collective has with our group. 
They saw her as volatile and unstable, something she was in a way, but never to the extent where murder is excusable. Over the last few days, a lot has taken place to punish the murderers. O`Cuinn has been replaced as GSS leader with their former Chief Operations Officer Drav Refter, for example. After four days, Raas has turned himself in to Cirina Moretti, wife of the deceased, and signed over Raas-Moretti Industries, or Raas Industries as it was known during the days after the murder, to her as well. The company has been since been renamed to Moretti Industries. Does anyone have any questions?’’

TriNebulon reporter: ‘’Mr. Sehrin, is there a chance that something like this will happen again?’’

Dex: ‘’Absolutely not, this was an isolated incident and everyone involved either has been or will be thoroughly punished. We already have strict rules against murders in Asher space and we shall do everything to prevent tragedies like this from happening in the future.’’

Central North News reporter: “Mr. Sehrin, what will actually happen with Mr. Raas and Ms. O`Cuinn?”

Dex: “No comment.”

PURE reporter: ‘’Is this the end of the drama?’’

Dex: ‘’Likely, all the parties have been dealt with accordingly and the Galactica Group is once again functioning as normal and all companies have remained within. Our products and services are all still available. It would appear that we have run out of time, so I’m ending this conference. I hope you are happy with the information and that you will continue to enjoy Galactica’s products and services.’’


And with that, the press conference has come to a close. The new leader of Moretti Industries has reached out to us with a closing statement. "We are currently working our hardest to get everything back to normal as soon as possible, so please be patient in the meantime. Elements involved in the attempted takeover and murder of Amelia have been detained and will be dealt with accordingly." With that, this is Jeff Froud for the Galactica Press Office, signing off.
