Detective,
It looks as if we have another quite interesting dilemma on our hands. I would like another look at New Moore Law. Oddly, despite the colorful array of interesting people that we have on this island, I had never expected such a catastrophe. Being only eight at the time that it had occurred, I found myself unable do much of anything to prevent it.
I've read the reports of the last time this happened, a "supervillain" calling himself "Victorious." This cannot be written off as a hallucination as the government wishes, I simply do not believe it. There must be an explanation. While I pursue the truth, I have an important question to ask you.
Those who've killed others in this massacre, even though against the government's insistence, were still killed, and they still suffered. What are the measures of prosecution? If someone, even in the future or past of themselves, has caused another to suffer, they have still caused them to suffer. I ask how this plans to be pursued by the New Moore Police Department.

While I do not understand some of the events that have transpired, I suppose this brings up a good question for the citizens of New Moore. While those scramble to verify the safety of their friends, I must ask this question.
After yesterday's occurrence, and the laws that are in place, what do we plan to do? Shall we stand by as this happens again? Despite the government insisting this was nothing but a hallucination, the destruction that the event caused is very, very real, and many people suffered because of that recklessness. While the Police Department does their part, I will do mine. What do you say, New Moore? Shall those who caused this be prosecuted, even though they were obviously not themselves at the time that the event occurred? Shall we walk into another event blindly without evaluating our own safety?
What precautions shall we put in place as this island's citizens, and what shall we do to make sure that this does not happen again?
For now, I pray for the safety of those looking for their loved ones.
