Kugai:
I think that this is either going to end with CW in cuffs on her way to AI Prison
Or very nastily
For whom, I have no idea
Oenone:
Do you think Corpse Witch is somehow involved in either human or AI trafficking?
Is it cold in here?:

Nobody is safe if coerced testimony is allowed in the system. Informants are dangerous as hell to the innocent. See the Orange County jailhouse informant scandal or the Cameron Todd Willingham case.
The Pugnacious Peach would never turn in a friend, certainly not an innocent one. She would never consent to setting up an innocent person. There are lots of criminals out there who have less character than Faye. If they are career informants they have to keep producing in order to stay free. Creating informants by arm-twisting is fraught with peril whether you think it reprehensible or not.
ZoeB:
I'm not sure that Faye has actually committed any crime. Morally, she hasn't, and if we're re going to play the legal game, then things like admissibility of evidence, chain of custody etc come in. Technicalities.
I'm also starting to wonder if CW is ex-police. Certainly she has the talent to be a good detective. Good as in effective, not good as in moral.
Akima:
I'm sure Faye could be prosecuted under one of those vague "conspiracy" charges:
"If you give me six lines written by the hand of the most honest of men, I will find something in them which will hang him." Cardinal Richelieu (disputed).

I was SO startled the first time I found an unexpected person in the kitchen. I knew the person and knew she was ok to be there, but... damn.

I think that's very much a rural/urban divide. As a big-city girl from birth, I would never ever leave the outside doors of my dwelling unlocked.
--- Quote from: Method of Madness on 23 Sep 2016, 12:43 ---Has there been any indication in the comic that Corpse Witch isn't her name?
--- End quote ---
It sounds like a nom de metiér, much like the ring-names of wrestlers, but we don't know much about how AIs are named in QC-verse, or what they consider their "real names", especially since their "self" can be independent of the chassis they currently occupy, so the equivalent of a MAC-address would not apply. As someone with different "inner" and "outer" names, I can relate.
