The Trial of Captains Sanchez and Taurik

[Ferando ONeil]

OOC: To General Zayan, You will find me the CMO and my medical Staff on the Rivendell quite Capable.

[Will Matthews]

Matthews stood, and gave a question to Freeman.
"Commander, you say that Captain Sanchez requested Captain Taurik to come to the Evolution. In your professional opinion, being an officer at the rank of Commander in Starfleet, would that be considered a prudent action? With the claim being that Captain Sanchez's small detour with the Evolution was quite private, but important. Would you say that it was quite appropriate that Captain Taurik met with him in private, to make an effective move to resolve the situation peacefully?".

[Will Matthews]

Matthews entered the room, following the Evolutions security officers. He did not lead any from the Rivendell, but came to view the 'event' for himself.

He took a seat in the proper place, and awaited the Admirals entrance.

[Morga Harf]

Entering just after the Admirals and the prosecutor I sit as close to the Captains as I could. Feeling for them because I like amany others on the evolution Guilty for going along with the Captain. But mutiny was still punishable by death if unsucessful so we went with him to make sure he returned safely. Wanting to be sitting there in the Dock was where I wanted to be.

[William Taylor]

Taylor looks down to his PADD.

"Commander, according to recorded footage and logs, following your first contact with the USS Evolution, Captain Taurik aggreed to hear Captain Sanchez's explanation. A simple, and unharmful act purphaps. But not only did he aggree to that, but he transported to the Evolution alone; Against yours as well as Commander Freemans advice. Is this all correct Commander?

He took a pause and then turned to the panel of Admirals.

"I also remind the Admirals that it was following this lone transport that Captain Taurik joined Captain Sanchez."

He then looked back to Baphomet.

[Will Matthews]

"I call Captain Taurik to the stand".

[Baphomet]

After Baphomet had left the stand to be replaced by Captain Taurik, she went back to her seat and listened to the rest of the trial.

[Randall Sanchez]

*Sanchez looks at Taurik as he sits down again, and whispers.*
"It's not going that well, now is it. We don't have exactly much to plead in our favour. I think we need a miraculous piece of evidence to be set free after this trial again."
*He sighs.*

[Will Karelia]

(OFF: I may not have mentioned this clearly enough, but Doctor Nickerson died in the Na'jigat attack on Avalon Station.)

[Vorak]

OFF: Could the trial continue please?

[Julian]

OFF: im bored... *pretends to be Knight (if you remember him)* "i had something to do with all of this! i communicated with sanchez telepathically and told him to do it all. and cause im knight he has to do it" lol... sorry... *leaves*

[Vorak]

*Vorak then suddenly speaks up.*
"I would like to state for the record that Mr. Sanchez was listed for a promotion to admiral, rather than have another ship command assigned after the decommissioning of the U.S.S. Evolution. He was also made aware of this by me personally prior to the events."
*He then faces Matthews.*
"You may continue."

[Will Karelia]

"Ensign, your cross-reference?"

[Will Karelia]

Karelia looks up in surprise. "General Zayan, this is a Starfleet matter. While you are welcome to observe this trial, it is not your place to interfere."

The admiral sighs in resignation. "Because you claim to have important information, I will allow you to approach the bench. But you will not interrupt another Starfleet proceeding in this manner again, understood?"
