III. Charges​

Count 1 — Murder (Felony Offense)

• Statute Violated: § 21(2)(a) Criminal Code and Procedure Act
• Definition: “A player is guilty of murder if they intentionally and knowingly or with extreme recklessness kill another player without consent from the other.”
• Maximum Punishment: £ 5,000 Fine + 60 Minutes in Jail

IV. Statement of Facts​

On or about 10/25/2025 at 23:26:09, within NewHamilton (1798, 93, 2896), the defendant Dearev intentionally killed PrestigeIX during an unprovoked confrontation.
Evidence collected at the scene identifies:

• Victim: PrestigeIX
• Attacker: Dearev (100%)
• Location: NewHamilton (1798, 93, 2896)
• Time: 10/25/2025 23:26:09

Digital forensic data (the “Blood Splatter” evidence) confirms Dearev as the attacker, with 100% certainty, consistent with server records.
Further, chat logs contain the defendant’s own admission:
“okay i did murder prestie but i would never threaten her majesty.”
This constitutes a voluntary admission supporting the factual basis of guilt.
