Description of the incident I was playing Marine and I needed a monkey cube from Research so I could use the monkey as a pet for a skit / gimmick I was planning to do. I went to
Research and the researcher Pablo "Pablito" Garcia gave me a monkey cube without any further incident.
However, as I was going back down, I was chased and flashed by Compy who wanted to valid me for a joke made with the CMO, claiming he wanted to do a
search on me. After I told him it was a joke, and I was let out, I set up the monkey. But during preparation for the round-start gimmick in the Hangar, I was arrested by
Compy had absolutely no proof other than the Researcher lying to him about how "a marine could've taken it' and 'that no cubes were given out".
He also knew that Research was completely unscathed, no suspicious prints nor damage was anywhere in the Research Lab, and the monkey cubes weren't outright
stolen but still arrested and brigged me for "theft". Given that, along with the failure for any other questioning or RP, I ahelped about this incident while ugnip
told me that it was an IC issue.
But I disagree because of these series of events; the Researcher lied to the MPs about this incident and enabled them to grief me, ranging from Prevarication for 20 minutes when I didn't commit any crime at all, to getting suffocated into hardcrit by the Warden when I got dragged into the Brig, almost dying. I was told to write a staff report since a player report would be closed due to it being already handled ingame.

Since the burden of proof was on the MPs, when they had absolutely no proof other than a Researcher lying that "a marine COULD'VE done it"; the research lab was completely unscathed with no suspicious prints nor damage to prove me as a thief, the images here corroborate on how Compy and the other MPs enabled Prevarication, especially without questioning me in game because no damage was ever done, and it would've been impossible for me to break in through three doors via sneaking pre-launch as the Researchers were already there. How you would punish the accused I don't want any punishment for Ugnip, but I want this report to be reviewed with this information in mind, since this context was missed when an IC issue was ruled.
