Live From Gotham
"Today District Attorney Ruben Harrington said today that he is certain that the individuals arrested earlier this month on corruption charges will be found guilty after their trials of which the first starts tomorrow. The individuals arrested included prominent political figures including long time Gotham Selectman Stanley Morse and Selectman Terrance Bentley. The trial for Stanley Morse starts tomorrow and will be the first of many trials.

DA Harrington pledged to help clean up Gotham at the start of his tenure as district attorney and according to him this is just the first step. He has sworn that all criminals of all kinds, whether they be drug dealers or corrupt politicians, will be prosecuted to the fullest extent of the law and there will be no leniency. Is our District Attorney trying to singlehandedly trying to clean up Gotham? He hasn't commented on his view about Gotham's caped community or what he intends to do about them if anything."

"In a starting turn of events, the District Attorney Ruben Harrington has come forward to say that the trial of Stanley Morse will not take place. The District Attorney will not say why the trial will not take place. There has been no mention that the charges against Stanely Morse have been dropped or if the trial will take place at a later time. Mr. Harrington has refused all interviews and refuses to comment."

	Maria was in the Batcave when the news report came on. It was quite clear that something wasn't right and she would bet money on Harrington being blackmailed or threatened. It was just a matter of finding out which. She brought up his information on the computer and read his file. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	"Harrington's not corrupt," she said. "He's been on the up and up since he took office and way before. Something made him do this and we need to find out what that something is." (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	He shrugs. "Well good to hear he's not, that makes this a bit easier. We find what these guys hold over him and we're in business." Truth be told, Thomas is excited to get back in the detective game and this is the perfect opportunity for it. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Ruben Harrington was in his townhouse waiting for the phone to ring. All of the lights were off and he paced nervously. They said they would call again with more demands. He had already given in once when he stopped the trial. What else could they want? He had to get his wife and daughter back. he would do anything or give anything to see them home safely.

	After questioning known associates of Morse the heroes would learn that Ruben Harrington's wife and daughter were being held in a warehouse down near the Gotham docks. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Robin is perched on one of the beams near the warehouse ceiling, silent and blending into the shadows. He can see the hostages and a few of the captors but waits for Huntress to signal the attack. Suprise attack coming to a warehouse near you... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Huntress watched for awhile. Four men, the wife and the daughter along with a girl with red hair with streaks walked around below. She looked over at Robin and nodded. It was time to get this party started. She jumped off the beam and dropped down to the floor landing next to one of the guys. She delivered a kick aimed at his head. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Re: Much Later cantkeepmeout 2011-11-30 01:28 am UTC (link)
	Four men and the redhead? Those were good odds. Huntress nods and it's time to start the fun. Robin jumps down, landing on the shoulders of the nearest one and knocking him to the ground. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)
