"The difference between a normal policeman and a military policeman, is that a military policeman deals with trained killers" - Anonymous

Overview

As a Military Police Officer, your primary duty is to obey and enforce Marine Law.

MPs are held to a very high standard of conduct because you are the source of in-character discipline as well as the server's first line of defense against out-of-character infractions. You are bound to Marine Law as Server Rules meaning if you break any laws in Marine Law you risk being punished outside of "In Character."

Enforcing Marine Law may be a hard task due to Marines being up to no good and refusing to come quietly. But fear not, you are equipped with great Non-Lethal Weaponry that can keep a marine down for the time you need to get them cuffed and transported to the brig.

When it comes to Marine Law matters, you are always to listen to the CMP above all else as long as it does not interfere with Marine Law or Server Rules. If you are ever in doubt, Ahelp the Situation and Ask before proceeding. This can save a lot of hassle and is a good tip you should keep in mind.

Unless Authorized by the CMP or aCO you are NEVER to use Lethals against a Suspect. - See Marine Law for more Information.

Your Workspace

The Brig is located West (fore) of CiC and can be accessed through the hallways outside the CIC.

The Brig is likely where you will spend a lot of time as MP. The Chief MP's office is in a central location and contains a Fax machine, records console, and a camera console. To the north (or starboard) of the office are the brig cells with timers, to the south (port) you can find the general work area, which includes the Armory, some vendors, MP lockers, the Evidence room, some general gear, and the forensic computer plus a couple forensic scanners lying on the table. Finally, to the west (fore) is the infirmary where prisoners can be treated, the holding cells, the execution room, and the isolation cells or as its also known; perma.

The Armory contains Six Lockers in total. The lockers are bulletproof and only open on Red Alert, but can be opened by the CMP or the XO/CO.

Regarding Prisoners

Detainment and Brig Procedures should always be followed meaning you do as it states in the specific order its said as well. If a prisoner harms himself or tries to break the window, you can temporary cuff him to the bed, run to Perma and grab a Straightjacket. The Straightjacket will remain on for the duration of the timer until the prisoner is released.

As a Military Policeman, you are assigned to the protection of USCM prisoners as well as POW (Prisoners of War) held in the Brig. Remember, you're not a 'no-mercy' type of officer from the early wars and should treat Prisoners in accordance with Marine Law.

Once a prisoner is appropriately sentenced you are to make sure they are provided their basic rights which CANNOT be denied, except for in extreme situations with approval from the Chief Military Police Officer.

Storing Evidence

Click and drag the item onto the evidence bag to place the object into the evidence bag. Evidence bags can be found in the SecVendors in the Gear Room. Once that's done place the secured evidence in the Evidence Storage room.

It is recommended you add a paper to it so you and others can later see who or where the evidence was taken from. Make sure all Evidence is appropriately Secured and Organised as well. A clean and organized evidence locker looks both professional and keeps your colleagues happy.

Your Tools

Being an MP is not an easy job. You are responsible for the security and law of the ship. Luckily, you have plenty of tools at your disposal to help you fulfill your duties.

"The Fax Machine:" This is used for contacting High Command. Primarily used to ask permission to remove the acing Commander from their position, it may also be used to inform High Command of unusual circumstances and receive instructions on how to proceed and when in doubt of the CMP's action you can report it through the Fax machine.

"The Records Console:" You can find this console in the general brig area and the CMP's office. It is used to review and update records and as such is one of your most essential tools. Use it to make sure people have their status (arrest, released, incarcerated or none) as well as any crimes they may have committed up to date. Status and comments may also be edited by examining someone if you have a secHUD on.

"The Camera Console:" There's one of these in the brig and a few more scattered around the ship in checkpoints and other workstations. The Console allows you to see through any camera in the USS Almayer, and it's useful to find or follow fleeing suspects as well as to keep an eye on shipside operations.

"MP tools:" You have access to a variety of items such as flashes, handcuffs, and tasers to help you control and subdue hostiles.
