In Dr. Phage's Submarine
For the second time during this operation, Senor Garcia idly wondered how much training LESP had in deadly force and its application. There was no escalation of force laid out either. Something that would need to be rectified. “If someone is about to kill or seriously injure another person then you can use deadly force.”
Unforntunelty, as a prisoner, killing Trishula made things a bit murky. You couldn’t just kill a prisoner even if escaping, unless during that escape they were going to cause death or serious bodily harm. But Bellissima’s warning was really all the justification Senor Garcia needed.
“I have little to no knowledge about magic or psionics, only that attempting to transport a prisoner with those abilities can be difficult, and in my previous occupation, unless they were a high value target it was always easier to just kill them instead of taking them into custody or we kept them heavily sedated.”
Then looking at JUSTICAR, Belimissa, and The Maharaja he stated something that was probably not going to go well, but had to be said. “Look, if any of you feel squeamish with killing Trishula, I have no problem doing so.”
“Although I have no idea who in the world may want him for crimes he may have committed or information he has, I don’t think he can be considered high value target to us like The Provider, or Dr. Phage are.”
“As it stands, we do have a mandate to do everything within our means to protect the lives of those we have taken prisoner, even if it is protecting them from another prisoner.”
