Arresting Guide
Posted: Sat Nov 26, 2011 9:53 am
Wasn't quite sure where to stick this. There's been some changes to the prison and I wanted everyone to have a chance to stick the 'how-to' for arrests for their particular guilds. We're all sharing the same cells now, so we've got to be a bit more careful as we'll all be interacting with each others prisoners. Sending an IC mail to GLs to disseminate this Order's info, but imms suggested I post here, too.
Arrest Procedure:
Mages (will always be medium or high level of danger on the warrant): Generally should be gagged and stripped of all items, including clothing. They should also be restrained. They will be housed in the fortified communal cells, solitary cells, hanging cage, or deep below.
Heretics - All non-clothing items should be removed from them. Depending on their heresy, they may need to be gagged or restrained (medium danger levels, depends on the warrant). Medium levels housed in the fortified common cells. Low levels either free to roam in the common cells or possibly in the beds, if they are of a certain class status.
Solitary confinement is for those who are (a) too dangerous, (b) in danger of being hurt themselves, or (c) too high class to be in the common cells but the case is too extreme to be taken care of via house arrest.
Nobles can demand to see their warrant before the arrest is made. The warrant must be approved by the Royal Family. They may only be convicted of a theological via the Grand Inquisitor (w/o a GL, this would go to the Cardinal). The restriction against capital punishment DOES NOT include cleansing via the pyre.
Non-nobles have no rights re: seeing the warrant, nor do they have a right to know why they have been arrested, by whom they have been arrested, or for what purpose. Anything told to them is by the kindness (or foolishness) of the arrestor. The Order prefers that the less they know, the better.
Anyone making an arrest should immediately put a notice on the board in the jail. Prisoners arrested for an Order warrant should have >ORDER< before their name on this board, regardless of whether or not it was a Knight or a Reeve that arrested them.
All confiscated items should be dropped with a drop pose of the person's name in the storage cell. If the items are too 'dangerous' to be left, then they should be mailed to the investigating officer (the person who put out the warrant or the guild's GL). ICly it may make sense to 'hang on to items', but in the interests of pushing investigations along, items should be left where all investigators can find them so that we don't have to wait on RP (and hold people in jail unnecessarily long) so that investigations can be made.
Anyone who interacts with Order prisoners should send a letter of their interaction with those prisoners to the investigating Inquisitor, detailing what was said. Inquisitors are required to keep a dossier log of their investigations, which are accessible by the GLs and anyone else involved in the case whether or not that player is logged on (location is known to those people).
