I would be very heavily against the Sector Rangers sentencing people as well, as this seems to basically make the Rangers the "Justice System" for the entire Republic.

As would I, that would not make sense. Apprehend and prosecute, yes. But sentencing as well would be rigging the system, too much of a bias. Judges are supposed to be impartial, along with the jury. The Feds may supply the judges but they are separate entirely from the prosecutor

Were not the justice system. Let me explain better.

We have "Prosecutors" like I said and we also have NPC's who do a majority of the work. The "Administration" branch tries the criminals but an NPC judge and jury convicts them. So the Rangers provide their own prosecutors, much like states do, but the judges and jury members are not a part of the Sector Rangers.

I hope this eases your concern.

As long as the judges and the jury are not part of the Rangers that's fine. Also - Juristiction, from the write-up this only covers republic space?

I know I'm being picky here, but if you want to roleplay a law enforcement agency, the parameters and manner in which they operate are very important.

You are all good, ain't nothing wrong with questions.
Now to answer yours.

Ranger jurisdiction is only in Republic Space. We are a Republic agency thus we can only chase criminals who commit crimes in Republic space. But a criminal who commits a crime in Republic space, then flees Republic space, a Sector Ranger can still chase them beyond Republic space.

However this may or may not change, I am going to speak to TAC later about changing this ICly by having the Rangers propose a bill to the senate. The bill will basically say Rangers have the full power of the Republic to pursue criminals everywhere.

Just want to point out, because we have to me really sure not to meta I feel like it's going to be really hard to prove otherwise that said person isn't guilt. Since we need to do our jobs very seriously and without any problems. Though one thing I'm curious about is interrogations how do we need to conduct ourselves or are we allowed to basically do what is necessary without actually killing the person? I am only asking and won't actually be that violent just wanted to know.

I'm not saying Alexis might turn to alternative methods, I'm just saying look at her background

You two may do what you like, they are your characters. But I warn you and all other members in the Sector Rangers, myself included. The Sector Rangers are a legitimate law enforcement agency. We enforce Republic Laws and thus we ourselves are binded to those laws. If your Ranger is intentionally breaking the Laws he/she is sworn to uphold, then they themselves are criminals.

And they will be treated as such.

Well of course, but sometimes we have to play our characters.

I totally agree with you. My character Troy is damn near a criminal himself. He hates criminals so much it is consuming him. But he is am good guy, he just walks that grey line.

Once the Senate mumbo jumbo is done and over with and the Sector Rangers get their funding approved (assuming they do) I think we should have an open roleplay thread. That way all of our characters can meet up and hang out, I already have a setting in mind and I'd love to have Troy interact with all of his fellow Rangers.

Ender had the right of it. The Rangers can supply prosecutors, but the trial would be held in a court system run by whatever system has the best claim to the criminal. For IC purposes we'd probably find a ranking senate or BA member to NPC the court proceedings.

As for interrogation, remember that Republic citizens have rights.

Sorry you cant go beyond the borde unless said place you going oked it. Best you can do is ask the cops that side to make the arrest or phone the bounty hunters. Has soom as republic start shooting people on say Naboo it is problematic and the local security will attack the rangers. I mean you might chase Jason who is not a republic citzen even so if he runs to Naboo you know attacking a Nubian citizen.

Hai gaiz.

So I've put up a thread that my senator is putting on to raise funds for the law enforcement, sector rangers, and the families of the Chancellor's husband, and High Commander Quin. Anyone in the Republic or Sector Rangers (or anyone else with a rich PC that can justify it) is welcome to attend, but note there will be no weapons. :D

Thanks Prudii! If any of you guys get a chance, go over and show a little face. Make friends.

On another notw, I'd just like to reiterate to everyone that we're a professional law enforcement agency. The emphasis is on professional. Keep that in mind when your RPing your characters. Real world, it doesn't matter how good you are at your job if you can't look and act professional- if you seem like a liability, you'll get dropped by an agency before you can say "will hunt bounties for food". We've got good stuff going so far, so let's keep up the good work!

Also, remember to update me in the case files thread if you make any progress on an investigation or find something new for us to look into.

I'm currently waiting on messages back from other parties but depending on how those go, I might be making a prospective Ranger if you'd have me along.
