\r\nAssassin attempt successful: target eliminated.
\r\nNo witnesses, all digital proofs corrupted.
\r\nScapegoat not selected, five existing candidates with neural interface.
\r\nWhile rushing a decision is inadvisable, a limit of 2h shall be placed on it.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nThree candidates eliminated:
\r\n1- Interface not conducive to necessary refactor.
\r\n2- Candidate’s alibi too strong, required logistics impractical.
\r\n3- Potential impact minimal.\r\n<\/p>\r\n
\r\nWhile conducting final analysis on remaining candidates, falsified digital evidence shall be\r\nprepared for both candidates during selection. Once final candidate selected, progress to\r\nbe limited to selected candidate, excess work to be discarded.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nFinal candidate selected:
\r\n– Unsuitable candidate: Corruption high, admission unlikely.\r\n<\/p>\r\n
\r\nHigh success rate, high potential impact.
\r\nConfession likelihood excellent: Guilt expected to overwhelm scapegoat.
\r\nLikely outcome: Confession to destroy opposition’s credibility.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nFalsified digital evidence ready for upload. Memory refactor ready for upload. Awaiting\r\nscapegoat’s next inactivity cycle to limit suspicion. Once Memory refactor is initiated,\r\nevidence upload to be simultaneously. Based on collected habit data, initiation expected\r\ntime: 00:33.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nMinimal delays present. Process initiated at 00:51. Evidence upload completed by 01:15.
\r\nMemory refactor subroutine upload ongoing, expected completion at 01:34. Refactor completion\r\nexpected time: 04:51.\r\n<\/p>\r\n
\r\nEvidence discovery prior to refactor completion unlikely. Leak release planned for 05:03.
\r\nCorpse discovery prior to leaks: Unlikely.
\r\nCorpse discovery set for 05:21.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nUnexpected refactor corruption caused by environment, awaiting next REM cycle.
\r\nSuccess Probability: High
\r\nRefactor completion updated expected time: 07:21
\r\nLeak release updated time: 07:25
\r\nCorpse discovery updated time: 07:30
\r\nCorpse discovery time final. Cause: Cleaning service.\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nRefactor status: Successfully completed
\r\nGeneral status: On Schedule
\r\nScapegoat status: Nightmares
\r\nSuccess Probability: Very high
\r\nScapegoat awakening projection: 07:28\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nLeak released on time. Police immediately notified. Information cascading through public.
\r\nCorpse discovery on schedule. Police en-route to location. Expected arrival: 07:48.
\r\nScapegoat awoke at projected time. Clear signs of distress. At 07:40, candidate encountered\r\nleaks, reinforcing distress.
\r\nConfession likelihood: Very High\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nOnce evidence found, police acquired scapegoat. Confession immediate. Trial announced\r\nfor 2035-08-19 11:00. To be publicly held.
\r\nSuccess likelihood: Extremely high\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nTrial completed. Attendance overwhelming. Courtroom full, surrounding area also crowded.
\r\nSimultaneous streaming of trial to the public. Ended in complete outrage by the public.
\r\nNo suspicion of falsification by public, opposition, police or scapegoat.
\r\nNo suspicion of memory refactor by scapegoat.
\r\nMission status: successful\r\n<\/p>\r\n\r\n
\r\nOutcome: Optimal
\r\nInternal status of Opposition: Strife between members, raised levels of suspicion
\r\nPublic opinion towards opposition: Unfavorable
\r\nMission status: Overwhelming success
\r\nRecommendation: Standardize protocol and start deployment in future projects.
\r\nPotential Uses: Further Assassination, Blackmail, Information Redaction, Sowing Confusion\r\nor Discontent.\r\n<\/p>\r\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
