Description of the incident: As Jack Harrow, MP, I was outside the med-bay keeping the peace right outside the Alamo Eastern Landing doors. Inside of the medbay lobby there was a large section of glass panels with two orange power loaders on either side of the display. In the center of the display were plaques, such as the ROs, among other items. This whole thing was made by Sgt. Hunter 'Pun' Thompson and is referenced multiple times in chat logs.
I overhear a commotion in the lobby area, where the display is, and move to investigate. I see Jean Corbeau striking a marine with a folding chair multiple times, rendering the marine unconscious. I spoke with the marine when they woke up and realize that they didn't want to press charges so I didn't make an issue of it.
Not even three minutes later I see SGT. Joe Joenius reclaiming one of the powerloaders. Sgt. Thompson makes multiple attempts to rip him out of the rig as I attempt to get them both to stop. I see Joenius make multiple attempts to do as I asked but Thompson continues to follow him and attempt to rip him out of the powerloader. He attempts to flee north out of the medbay lobby and towards the hallway.
I see Prof. Corbeau chase after them and hear the sound of a flamethrower going off a moment later. I realize what happened and go to confirm as I see logs that Corbeau threw away the flamethrower and was then attempting to stop a marine who was on the ground burning. He successfully stops the burning but I intervene at this point and tell the CMO he's under arrest for assault at minimum at that point.
He takes off and runs away. I call over the radio for backup and for someone to set his status to "arrest". Despite multiple explinations, Strome proceeds to just place them as a "suspect" insisting that I "investigate" the situation further despite being a witness to every moment of the situation unfold. Disregarding this information he does not move to assist nor does he do as he was asked and set the CMO to "arrest status".
I see the CMO in the area of the medbay again and attempt to make an arrest. He uses a gas grenade which disorients my character and prevents me from giving chase. I attempt to tase him but, due to Strome failing to do as he was asked despite clear reason to do so, since the CMO wasn't set to arrest the CMO got away as the taser bolts didn't effect them. I called for backup which never came, the cadets, other MP, and CMP all ignoring the radio traffic.
I finally get the CMO set to arrest and attempt to take him into custody, I follow him around the medbay where he attempts to go up the left southern ladder into research and I manage to baton him once. Nurse Ramon 'Bad Frag' Owens intervenes, body blocking me multiple times and disarming me to the degree I was pushed over. They tried to take my dropped baton but were stunned by the security on the device. Owens was taken into custody for Interfering with an arrest.
While in the brig I see the CMO now show up with NO status on them. I ask the CMP who states he's not going to allow the charge to go through because the CMO helped the CL. I attempted to point this out and write a formal complaint in the round but the round shortly ended there after.
As I was speaking with Silencer_pl about the matter in PMs, who encouraged me to make this report, Corbeau proceeds to come into the brig, and without provocation, gasses me again. Due to the chemicals used my character constantly passed out multiple times and was rendered helpless for several minutes. Only then was the CMO arrested but they were let them go due to round-end shenanigans.
Evidence (screenshots, logs, etc):
What resolution are you seeking? Strome, for his blatant negligence in the face of the situation and going out of his way to ignore facts and circumstances to assist a criminal should get an appropriate warning unless this is a reoccuring issues.
The CMP and CMO are supposed to, and likely are, veterans players who should know better about these things. The fact that it got that bad and nothing was done until it had to happen literally in front of multiple MPs is just beyond negligent and the fact that the CMP let them go to begin with is in clear violation of ML. Additionally, both failed to uphold the elevated standards placed on officers by repeatedly acting in a manner that is contrary to their rank, to include fighting marines, gasing marines/mp with specially made mixtures, inappropriately pardoning without proper justification, and shooting themselves. I believe the CMO and CMP are due proper punishments based on their history but greater than a warning.
