Watch officer nabbed in Merchant District sting
MERCHANT DISTRICT - An officer of the Watch lost his job and was jailed Freeday after being nabbed in a Merchant District sting operation, authorities said.
An investigation was started after complaints had been lodged against Baptald Doniste, 37, alleging he had been taking money from citizens.
Late Earthday, authorities used a confidential Olman informant who pretended to speak very little Common and pretended to be intoxicated.
Doniste was dispatched to the scene to handle a disturbance and allegedly confronted the informant and took several hundred nobles that had been given to the informant by the Watch.
The officer was arrested after his shift and resigned from the Watch before being booked with armed robbery and malfeasance.
Doniste had been with the Merchant's Watch for nine years.

Reader comment: How do we as Sasserinians expect to endure the threats of enemies from without, when our grand city is rotting from within?
I say hang him; swift Dawn Council justice, the same as any knavish pirate or mountebank would get.
I also believe that our whole society in general is going down hill, for we are in the shadows, far from Pelor's light. Dens of iniquity everywhere!!! All manner of lechery!!! When you choose not to include Pelor in every aspect of your life,...well this is the sort of thing you can expect.

Excellent set of threads. I really appreciate these. Except I am going to call the paper "The Truth" with respects paid to Terry Pratchett. Also in my campaign the Merchant District beat writer is Phimblina Furrypants (Gnome Fem Ex 1) who will try to interview the PCs when they get to shore after the Blue Nixie catches fire. Apologies if you feel I've trivialized your offerings but the comedy aspect works better in my group.
No worries, stoner.
