President Harvey Delacroix
*Sits at the end of the room on a chair by a coffee table as he has a smoking cigarette in his mouth and a glass of whiskey in one hand*
"Ah, Captain, you're here. Just in time to brief me on a matter of utmost importance."

Captain Ludwig Falkenrath
*Sits on the creaky old motel bed while his eyes are attentively locked on Harvey*
"That might be so, Mr. President. But what's with the choice of the rundown motel for a meeting like this? Tens of five-stars hotel in San Francisco's Market and Financial District but you're calling for a meeting somewhere in red-light Mission."

"Oh, Ludvy, I'm just calling you here because there are certain people behind my tail. Watching my every move at City Hall and even I don't feel safe at my own home. Internal Security, does the name ring a bell? Larry Killgore even?"

"Trust me, Harvey, I have tangled with them before. Internal Security are practically co-babysitters of the SAU. They have been left unaccountable for their actions. Freely bugging my place and tailing me as they please for the sake of "national security"."

"Tell me about it. You have been my most loyal and compassionate, friend, Ludvy ever since I got this post. The SAU has been... a great help for the security of this Presidency and nation."

"Don't mention it, Harvey. The duty of the SAU is an apolitical one in protecting the people and nation from the shadows. We shouldn't be playing the hot potato that is politics..."

"But the Council's got the SWAT under their payroll and good graces by passing pro-militarization laws and giving them the funds they need to acquire military hardware."

"Not to mention the Knights of Policing union are lobbying Congress for free rein in surveilling and preventative crime measures. They're supporting the Patriot Act on motion after a couple of armed robbers did a number on us in that Market Street shooting."

*Tilts his glass of whiskey around with great melancholy and sporting a down look*
"Tell me. Ever since the Anchorage Treaty that stopped us from fielding a military, how's the state of the boys in blue of the SFPD?"

*Puts on a fake reassuring smirk*
"All is well, Harvey. New arrests every day and homicide cases solved."

"Come on, don't be like this. Dish out the hard facts. Remember what I did for you back in '97?"

*His joviality dissipates as he switches to a business mode-like persona and his smirk turned into a frown real quick*
"Other than the spike in crime due to worsening living conditions, the increasing militarization of the police where they look more like Wehrmacht soldiers, beatings of racial minorities on broad daylight, surveillance on every corner of the City, and the erosion of community trust. Everything's just peachy, Harvey."
...
"But you didn't call me here for whiskeys and cigarettes like the good old days. You wanted a report on the various law enforcement agencies here in the Bay. See who's a friend and see who's unreliable."

"Damn right. I want to ensure total loyalty of SFPD units to me as their President instead of having this de facto private army deal."

*With a cold gaze at Harvey, Ludwig handed over the report to him before straightening his shirt*
"Here is the report I have prepared, Mr. President."

*His face lightens up as nicotine smoke arises from his cigarette stick*
"Merci. By the way, you have been a good friend to me. You have saved my ass numerous times during times of crisis with your SAU without seeking favors. That's what I call the mark of a true friendship."

*Cracks a faint smile before he gives the dossier to him*
"You gave me a second chance back in '97 when nearly all of the 1st SAU was slain defending you during a hit attempt when the Council was demanding my resignation and me being held accountable for their sacrifice. I appreciate it, Harvey."

"You saved my ass and I saved your ass. It makes us even and this an equal relationship between friends. For my friends, everything."
...
"Now how about a report on the agencies in the SFPD."


REPORT ON THE LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES IN SAN FRANCISCO



Formed: January 1973
Members: 500
Agency: San Francisco Police Department
Commander: SWAT Captain Francis Mulcahy

"Ah, the SFPD SWAT Team. Where much of the policing budget goes down the drain to support these highly-trained and professional officers. Funds that go into procuring military surplus weapons from Denver, their officer's paychecks and wives' jewelry, and maintaining that military-grade equipment. The SWAT and SAU also maintain a low-key rivalry based on seniority and professionalism. However, as SAU Chief, I'll try to be impartial to my fellow officers and acknowledge their meritorious service. Furthermore, I'll get straight into the point."

"The Special Weapons and Tactics (SWAT) forms the backbone of the special forces in the SFPD that deal in quick response of situations in progress and neutralizing enemies that outclass regular SFPD units. They answer to the Chief of Special Operations while managed under the Special Operations Bureau. SWAT teams are given training by weapons experts in the SBI, French GIGN, German GSG-9, British SAS, and the United States Army in Denver as a professional unit. Only the best of the best that come from the regular SFPD are selected or assigned to join the SWAT. The program usually goes on for a period of 1 to 2 years in order to compensate for our lack of professional military training and even a military force. The SFPD SWAT is certainly modeled after the regular Army based on the military-grade equipment, training that emphasizes lethal force and breaching during urban combat, and a shoot-to-kill mindset. SWAT members are tasked with responding to high-stake situations such as shootings and robberies at a minute's notice, counter-terrorism ops, and hostage situations. Officers usually partake in regular patrols together as a company because they are always on standby and couldn't afford to lose precious seconds when responding to a situation in progress."

"The SFPD SWAT was formed in 1973 during a time where many law enforcement including the LAPD began implementing their own special police tasks force. They responded to many terrorist threats posed by the Black Liberation Army and the Symbionese during the 70s in addition to the usual lone wolf crimes. Since the 1998 West Addition raid of a project building held by armed criminals as well as the general spike in crime in the mid-90s; it has become imperative for the SWAT to be expanded and its firepower increased in response to the spike in highly dangerous crime such as terrorists and sophisticated weapons falling into the hands of criminals. A 50-man SWAT platoon before the 90s was increased to a 500-man battalion with enlistment becoming more accessible. Yet there have been growing concerns about the nature of policing itself when San Francisco was struck with two high-profile shootings in 1998. With people becoming more concerned with the growing trend of militarization in the police as enforcers which has even bled to the regular SFPD itself. Especially controversial is their policy of "no-knock" during raids and excessive force in dealing with targets."

"SWAT teams enjoy better military equipment than their regular SFPD counterpart to reflect on the nature of their professional training in addition to the kind of highly dangerous criminals that they are up against. The average SWAT officer is clothed with ballistic vests with "SWAT" inscribed on them, black and blue BDUs, black PASGT helmets, and fire-resistant balaclavas for cover. Their gear is also one of the best in the City's law enforcement. Standard sidearm comes in Glock 22s which are lighter yet holds more rounds and potent with .40 S&Ws. They also usually carry around MP5A3, modular R0635s, Mossberg 590s, AR-15s semi-automatic rifles, and M4s carbines. Cadillac Gage Rangers are used to transport personnel around the city. And as far as police units go, the SWAT is one of the best and professionals in their field as they got the number."



Formed: July 1982
Members: 650
Agency: SFPD (Mission, Ingleside, and Bayview Precinct)
Commander: Captain Rolando Powers

"Phoenix. "Perp-beaters" is a title that they proudly wear like a badge. Couldn't go around 20th Street Potrero, 24th Street in Mission, or 3rd Street Bayview without getting stop and frisked. Maybe get a bruise here and there if they have a bad day. Perhaps the worst offender of police rules while claiming to follow the law... But it's not my place to chew them to bits. I'm expected to remain neutral in regards to them but it's inevitable that some cold facts must be dished out in regards to their notorious reputation that they've been purposefully cultivating. "Enforcing the peace by the blood-drenched sword"; that's their internal motto. Take that as you will."

"The Phoenix Division otherwise known as CRUSH or CRime Unit to Stop Homicides is a de jure subdivision of the SFPD and subordinated to the Field Operations Bureau - serving alongside the Metro Division. Consisting of uniformed police officers and plainclothed detectives. They're a special unit, you see, distinguishable from the regular SFPD in their command structures and duties. Phoenix Division acts like a gang intelligence unit and a moderately "elite" police unit between top-of-the-class SWAT and regular SFPD. They only cover parts of Mission District, Potrero Hill, and Bayview - Hunters Point as recognized crime hotspots with talks ongoing in including Tenderloin as well. In addition to further expansion to CRUSH. While they are formally a part of the regular SFPD; they have become practically another agency of their own by playing their own rules."

"They deal with low-life street gangs, pimps, and thugs who aren't Danza Mobs, Yakuzas, or Triads. Phoenix sends out patrols to "hot zones" where homicide and narcotics are abundant such as Sunnydale Projects and Hunter Point. Parts where regular SFPD have loose control over and they're sent there to rein them in. They also maintain a network of street informants from enterprising gangsters and undercover cops who are inserted in every part of the underground world to gain intelligence on the latest gang activity. Now, structurally they are different from the regular SFPD in that they are cut loose by the Commission themselves with few oversights and allowed carte blanche to approach homicide whatever they want. This ordeal has gone on for too long as the Board thinks that cutting them loose would mean a drop in drug-related homicide and it shows in the records with dubious validity."

"Phoenix Division was founded in 1982 just when Mayor Feinstein remodeled the city by building skyscrapers and pushing lower-class people away from their neighborhoods in parts of Mission and SoMa. Phoenix was in its embryonic stage during the 80s and only dealt with homelessness and vice-related problems as a part of the MATRIX Program. The very same Program tasked with pushing homeless people away and closing "filthy establishments" in order to increase property value. However, their responsibility increased in size and oversight decreased when the Commission decided to cut them loose in fighting homicide and gang-related crimes during the 90s. Just when there are 100 homicide cases reported and street gangs beginning to form from the projects and lower-class neighborhoods. Phoenix Division began to cover a lot of ground in Ingleside, Mission, and Bayview after an informal co-policing agreement with the precincts of those districts in patrolling the streets together. Enacting the city's "Broken Windows" policy by cracking down on minor offenses like loitering, vandalism, and playing your jukebox too loud in the streets."

"With the lack of oversight comes the lack of accountability and more opportunities for instances of abuse of power. Phoenix officers are rather cavalier about their duty and appreciate the power that comes with the badge rather than the responsibility that comes with it. They think of themselves as being above the law and like to partake in cowboy activities that would only flush cases to mistrials. They regularly use excessive force in apprehending or taking down a perp without being provoked. Sometimes the perp could be innocent and then they'll have a spare gun to plant on the scene of the crime - that's probably how they got a high record in busting cases. Something like a search or arrest warrant is foreign to them as if you look suspicious enough then that's grounds for them to stop and frisk you or search for your house. And don't get me started on the conditions of detained suspects in their precincts. They'll roughen them up and beat them up in order to extract information. It's a rite of passage for rookies in Phoenix and I heard the Chief there encourages that kind of aggressive behavior. Then there's the matter of racism that runs deep in their Division. Racial profiling of Latino and African-American youths where they find themselves at the short end of the stick in all of this. They're trained to think that those kinds of people are potential gangsters."

"I shouldn't be talking about rumors but I've heard disconcerting reports about the connection between individual Phoenix officers and street gangs. Sometimes individual officers cover for gangsters for a certain price or give them drugs locked up as evidence while in turn, those gangsters would agree to hold off from undertaking any more hits and drive-bys. It's said in a memo that the Chief there is dividing parts of those districts as zones of influence for gangs to operate in order to "control crime at a manageable rate" in a system known as the "Sharing Law". Kumi 415 gets a part of Bayview, Westmob in Hunters Point, Bahala Na Gang in Excelsior, Nortenos and MS-13 a slice in Mission. Otherwise, the equipment of Phoenix officers is slightly better than the regular SFPD with the added bonus of being allowed to wield semi-automatics in low quantities. Service sidearms include the Smith & Wesson Model 27 with a 4 inch barrel and 9mm Beretta 92Cs. Behind the back of every Phoenix cruiser is a rack for Ithaca 37s. Some carry around Mac-10s and AR-15s during high-stake missions. While SFPD officers dress in black uniforms; Phoenix officers ironically dress in baby blue colors as a part of a community effort to "sanitize" their image."

"Between CRUSH and street gangs; sometimes I wonder the differences between them but one's wearing a badge and claiming to be protecting the community for their own good."



Formed: 18 October 1991
Members: 850
Agency: San Francisco Police Department
Commander: Lieutenant Ricardo Mendez

"Frisco Vice or the Vice Squad are some of the most well-dressed officers that you could find in the Bay Area. Expensive pastel Italian Armani suits and the latest women's fashion is what they're wearing as plainclothed detectives. A sports car like the Countach, Diablo, Daytona, and Testarossa comes with the job as well. Ask them what cocaine tastes like and they'll stick their finger into it and tell you what it's like. As a matter of fact, the Vice Squad is an agency that is tasked with cracking down on "moral vices" as written in San Francisco's penal law. Moral vices ranging from illegal pornography, distribution of drugs, illegally-run brothels, and prostitution, public drinking, among many others that need to be straightened out. They are known to bust bars and stores dealing with illegal materials. But the Vice Squad mostly primarily deal with the illegal drug and arms trade coming from Mexico or South America as they have undercover agents working 24/7 in monitoring shipments of merchandise, infiltrating drug empires, and busting deals in progress."

"Vice Squad members are mostly Detectives coming from the SFPD who are deemed to have a knack for undercover ops and investigative talents. They have 8 to 14 months of training in order for an SFPD detective to become a member. Yet they do take in regular Officers as well and have coordinated anti-vice efforts with the regular SFPD. As an agency, they are subordinated to the Special Operations Bureau and have the Chief of Special Operations to answer for. The average Vice Squad detective works as plainclothed officers who mingle in with the populace while working undercover. They are highly-trained professionals in emotional intelligence and small arms marksmanship. They have taken down 6 drug empires and 13 drug barons who are operating cross-country in San Francisco. These officers in fancy suits who look like they're stranded from Miami are nothing to scoff at."

"They were founded in 1991 just when the crack epidemic reached San Francisco and the spike in the illegal distribution of materials such as child porn and snuff films. The Squad had extraordinary powers in closing down businesses partaking in illegal activity and busting into places without warrants most of the time but after the Vice Funds scandal of 1997, their powers were heavily curtailed and most of the unit reorganized. Turns out they were embezzling funds from the drug trade to finance their luxurious lifestyle and the Commission was quick in reining them in for once. There were also instances of Vice Squad agents going too deep while undercover and switching sides on behalf of drug barons. "Take the wealthy of the wicked to finance a just cause" that was their internal motto and their justification."

"Frisco Vice detectives dress in expensive suits or casual clothing to reflect their nature as undercover agents. The expensive pastel Italian suits are for meeting with drug barons of similar fashion senses. While the Hawaiian shirts, jean jackets, cardigans, polo shirts, and short dresses are for casual days. They are mostly equipped with small arms, nothing too heavy than a submachine gun. Detectives could bring in their personal weapons as long as it's a .38 or .357 revolver and a 9mm pistol. But standard-issue sidearms include the SIG Sauer P229, Jericho 941, and Smith & Wesson Model 29s with a 5-inch barrel. They also carry around submachine guns including silenced MAC-10s, Beretta M12s, and Skorpions. But the cream on top is that they offer new recruits expensive sports cars or tuners from Japan which are actually confiscated from their previous drug dealing owners. An SFPD Detective only joins the Squad for three things: "money, women, and fast cars"."



Formed: August 1992
Members: 1,500
Agency: Ministry of Finance
Commander: Director Elliot Chapman

"Alcohol... Tobacco... Firearms. Those are the three words when put together that any gun owner fears and loathe. I like those three myself but not this three-lettered agency."

"The Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, and Firearms or ATF is a governmental agency tasked with the regulation of firearms export, manufacturing, and sales at shops which has been their primary mission since the 70s. Their mission is to keep dangerous guns from the wrong hands of the wrong sort of people. They also deal with arson and bombings in which they regulate the provision of explosives and incendiary materials. Not to mention cracking down on illegal trafficking and tax evasion of alcohol and tobacco products. If you want to sell something like firearms, tobacco, and alcohol then you'll need an ATF license to sell it in San Francisco. They are managed under the Special Operations Bureau while answering to the Ministry of Finance and cooperate on the regular with city-state police departments and county sheriffs as well as executing their duties alongside the DEA in bringing down illegal trafficking. The ATF has collected billions in revenue when it comes to the taxation of alcohol and tobacco."

"The Bureau is mostly a regulatory one where they send so-called "Inspectors" or "Supervisors" to gunshops to ensure that their collection remains legal and registered. Businesses that are suspected to be used as money laundering schemes have also come under SBI and ATF supervision. However, they also field "Special Agents" as an armed investigative task force in executing no-knock raids against weapons depots or the homes of sellers in order to extract whatever illegal firearms they may have. Illegal firearms in their definition are anything that is automatic, an assault rifle, and punches harder than a 9mm. They have continuously pushed firearms cases in Congress in getting particular weapons modifications and attachments to be banned from manufacturing as well as gun models from being acquired by the general public. These cases have mostly restricted the freedom of gun owners practicing their Second Amendment rights rather than restricting gangsters from owning one."

"However, when it comes to their Special Agent Task Force, they are adequately trained so to say for what's supposed to be an elite task force designed to stop highly-armed arms traffickers and prevent arson/explosive cases. SATF federal agents are trained in investigation skills of criminal cases, basic firearms training, driving, crime scene management, hand to hand combat, surveillance, interrogation, among others under the beginner's Criminal Investigator Training Program which lasts for 12 weeks. After that, they would undergo "Special Agent Basic Training" where they would learn how to write reports, federal court procedures, explosives and arson investigation, firearms trafficking prevention, and advanced firearms training. Imagine the SATF as a combination of plainclothed FBI and armored SWAT team units."

"Though they are well trained, their performance has decreased in recent years due to budget cuts in austerity and political pressure. Their raids have become sloppy and the excessive force used in reaction to the Midtown Terrace Incident where they killed a family of 6 suspected of dealing in illegal weapons and the standoff at Oak Street, Panhandle which killed another 4 suspected arms traffickers would remain a taint to their history. They have been a favorite of right-wing groups like the Patriots to Save America to be used to demonize the federal government of San Francisco. Not to mention their history spanning back to the Prohibition Era with Special Agent Elliot Ness in enforcing anti-alcohol laws and shutting down gay bars in SF on grounds of moral vice and drug dealing while under a different name. The SF branch was only reactivated in 1992 in response to the spike of automatic pistols and rifles like the AK falling under the hands of street gangs."

"To reflect on their newfound SWAT-esque training, the ATF has been issued several military-grade weaponry on top of standard-issued agency pistols to reflect on the growing strength of arms traffickers and street gangs. Field agents are issued with the .45 ACP Ruger P90DC and the concealed 9mm H&K PSP. As for raids and standoffs that require heavy firepower; they come in equipped with Remington 870s shotguns, HK MP5K submachine guns, and sometimes Bushmaster M4 carbines. ATF agents mostly stroll around as plainclothes with specially-issued jackets that bear the "ATF" label on the back. However, they come prepared with ballistic vests, dark blue military fatigues, and PASGT helmets."



Formed: November 1996
Members: 1,200
Agency: Ministry of Justice
Commander: Administrator Hank Hawke

"The Drug Enforcement Agency is a newly-reactivated law enforcement agency tasked with combating the trafficking and distribution of drugs in the Bay Area. Narcs such as meth, crack, weed, cocaine, and heroin. They also maintain some jurisdiction over the lightly-controlled North Californian Frontier. DEA deals in fighting the illegal distribution of narcotics and restricting the usage of illegal narcotics within the Bay Area. They've got Special Agents monitoring crack dens and wiretapping on drug dealers and makers 24/7. Like the ATF, they have carried out raids against dens suspected of housing illegal narc manufacturing where they've got search warrants issued beforehand. Pharmaceutical companies are required to register a DEA forum in order to make sure that their medicines are not used as trojan horses for illegal substances. They have federal jurisdiction over the entirety of the Bay Area in addition to carte blanche of carrying out federal investigations against suspected drug distributors. They are subordinate to the Ministry of Justice and managed under the Special Operations Bureau."

"DEA's founded on 1st of July, 1973 on the initiative of President Richard Nixon in order to fight against the rising drug trade. A single cohesive response against the rise of illegal narcs necessitated the need for the formation of a drug enforcement agency. Thus, the Bureau of Narcotics and Dangerous Drugs (BNDD), the Office of Drug Abuse Law Enforcement (ODALE), and special agents from the Customs Bureaus banded together and formed the modern Drug Enforcement Agency in '73. Originally, the duty of busting drug deals and wiretapping on drug dealers was the Vice Squad's job back when San Francisco was fresh from independence. But after a scandal broke out in regards to the misappropriation of funds and the subsequent Vice Investigation Commission; that duty shifted to a newly-reactivated DEA built from the foundations of the once existing San Francisco Division of the DEA. The spike in crack usage in San Francisco and the concerning uncontrolled growth of the drug trade and barons in the North Californian frontier necessitated its re-activation."

"Since the 70s under Nixon, America and San Francisco have fought a losing and never-ending battle against the drug itself in the War on Drugs. Wasted billions of tax-payer's money for little gain as the drug trade and consumption isn't dropping anytime soon with the current tough policy of raids and mass imprisonment at hand. Incarceration rates are rising and they've mostly targeted black and Latino people. If you have a little ganja on you then it's grounds for the DEA to arrest you and throw you in jail for years just because you wanted something recreational. It's a sorry state of affairs as those boys who do time in prison would enter civilian life as changed men and may lean on committing another crime again. Weed, 10 years, and being black or a spic; name a better combination. Then there's the matter of the right hand not knowing what the left hand is doing... Or the two hands know and are complicit in this vicious cycle. The Denver CIA and FBI have been complicit in the distribution of illegal drugs to low-class black and Latino neighborhoods in order to fund their overseas operation in Latin America and the Pacific. DEA's just along for the ride as they're hopeless fighting against the CIA's drug operation. CIA made people like General Noriega off-limits for the DEA to indict and the War on Drugs has irrevocably damaged the society of Latin American nations."

They have 1,200 employees under their belt as of 1999. 600 of them are working as Special Field Agents. They undergo training in firearms, special field operations, breaching, surveillance, forensics, and narcotics testing. The SF DEA has four offices in Bay Area counties and one in Northern California under the nominal jurisdiction of the Denver government. Agents have warrants to indict domestic and international fugitives who have dealings in San Francisco which is they've been fighting against the Medellin Cartel in Colombia. DEA agents are highly trained in their jobs. They have executed 400 raids against drug dispensaries with precision and very few resulted in unnecessary deaths. Special Agents wear beige trousers, blue shirts, badges, and dark blue jackets with the words "DEA" emblazoned on the back. Standard firearms come in Glock 19, Beretta 92, and CZ 75 semi-automatic 9mm pistols. For Rapid Response Teams tasked with elevated risk and high-risk arrests; they come prepared with Colt 9mm SMGs, MP5s, and AR-18s assault rifles."



Formed: June 1994

"Quis custodiet ipsos custodes?"

"The Public Internal Security or simply known as Internal Affairs is one of the most frighteningly competent yet widely-hated institutions among law enforcement and government. I don't need to tell you why you should fear Internal Affairs other than the fact that one Internal investigation could set you up for expulsion from your position. Internal Affairs deals with cases of misappropriation of funds, abuse of power, and corruption within law enforcement and government by starting investigations and issuing subpoenas to court. Those who were previously seen as "untouchable" suddenly found themselves touched by the shadow hand of the government. They're very good at their job of flushing out abusers of power, frighteningly so, and that's why many bigwigs in Congress and the Police Commission want a curtail of their already pervasive institutional power. Any cases of police brutality and corruption such as bribery, nepotism, and "hush moneys" are immediately investigated by Internal Affairs and that's what gets their boots shaking. Nobody's their favorites under the eye of the PIS. There's a reason why everybody hates and fears Internal Affairs. Especially with self-righteous men like Director Killgore at the helm."

"The PIS was founded in June 1994 as a merger of City Internal Investigations (CII) and Police Watcher Subcommittee (PWS) with 300 SBI agents transferred to help formulate the PIS' structure and workplace culture. The best of the best, moral saints SBI agents were sent in as the "Untouchables" on account of their clean track record and competency. They were formed in response to public and media outrage of the reveal of connections between the criminal underworld and City Council members during the Friscogate of '94 which led to the reorganization of the Ministry of Justice and the resignation of 3 important Council members. Now the PIS has more leeway and powers in conducting internal investigations against the perceived abuse of powers committed by those in power. The founding of the PIS helped contribute to an increase in governmental accountability, transparency, and a drop in corruption. However, all of that comes with a heavy price of mass surveillance. They think they have the right to ignore the privacy of officials by wiretapping their phones, looking at our tax returns and assets. Not to mention, some of their cases are motivated by a desire to increase their good name and spotlight by pursuing cases against people whom they don't like in government."

"Internal Affair's a strictly investigative agency where they don't spend their time with boots on the ground. Instead, they've got agents known as "Directorate Agents" or DAs in undertaking investigations. Internal Affairs agents are mostly fresh recruits with University Majors and Master Degrees in Political Science, Psychology, and STEM fields. They fish out for recruits with highly investigative and detail-oriented analytic minds. Them being fresh with no history in other law enforcement agencies also helps in minimizing collusion and conflicts of interests with their former agency buddies but they also tend to accept SBI transfers. However, they also maintain a highly secretive paramilitary group whose operations and identity of its agents are classified known as the Shadow Firm as they maintain front companies for their organization. These 100-man Shadow Firm agents are unassuming plain-clothed men though with a shadowed badge indicating they're Internal Affairs in order to cover their relations with the organization. They carry out high-risk arrest warrants and gather intelligence in regards to persons of interest. Their standard-issued sidearms are the SIG Sauer P226, Smith & Wesson Model 4506, and Colt Commanders."

"The State Bureau of Intelligence is this country's best and last line of defense against internal and external threats in domestic affairs. The SBI is a state law enforcement agency tasked with fighting against high-profile criminals and international fugitives. It is purely focused on domestic matters such as tackling homegrown terrorism, monitoring the activities of international fugitives and foreign terrorists within San Francisco, carrying out arrest warrants against high-risk perpetrators, and ending stalemates at siege and hostage situations as a second last option. However, the SBI's work is mostly an investigative one like the PIS as they issue out search warrants and carry out investigations into the finances of important people in order to fight white-collar crime. The kind of enemies that the SBI is coming up against is larger than anything the regular SFPD has ever seen. I'm talking international crime syndicates from Mexico and Colombia, cyber-criminals and rogue android Impersonas, terrorists, highly-armed robbers and gangbangers, and crazy occultists. The method and scale of their work are the reason why they often overlap with my SAU in terms of jurisdiction. They answer to the Special Operations Group, the Ministry of Justice, and the Attorney General."

"The SBI was reactivated from the San Francisco branch of the FBI in 1993 at the backdrop of rising homicide rates in the City Southeast and escalation of political violence at the midst of the City's most polarizing political period in the 90s. A shooting in an office building at 101 California Street in San Francisco which left 9 dead became the impetus for the reactivation of the FBI. In 1994, the SBI undertook their biggest investigation yet in building up a case against known players in the game connected with MS-13 through undercover investigations and had them arrested on drug and gang charges. In 1995, the SBI responded to a mass shooting at Union Square with the support of SWAT units and managed to gun down the lone shooter and contain the situation. In 1996, the SBI responded to a bomb threat by the SFLA as they barricaded themselves in a house in Fremont. SBI tactical units raided the place and neutralized the terrorists and bomb. In 1997, they ended the American Front's siege at a warehouse in Hunter's Point. By 1999, they captured 100 high-level fugitives and responded to 73 cases of domestic threats. As you can see, the SBI is staffed and trained by real professionals."

"However, what doesn't help their reputation is allegations of pervasive surveillance on its own citizens with unrestricted wiretapping, cellphone bugging, internet surveillance, and security cameras. Sometimes, they carry out illegal searches of an involuntary alive or dead person's memory in Transmemory Wayfinder without an affidavit from the court. And silencing of political dissent through the COPATOP (Covert Patriot Operations) by infiltrating groups like the Rainbow Coalition and the PSA as well as weakening the power of left-wing trade unions. With accusations being thrown around that the SBI targets left-wingers more than those in the right through political favoritism and bias. Like any police department, the SBI is iffy when it comes to gun discipline and has maintained an opaque exterior to its inner workings. Where any internal investigations into the matter of their own agents being resolved in their favor. Much like the ATF, the SBI has become the target of conspiracies that accuse them of being arms of the deep state by shutting down whistleblowers, media blackouts and clamping down leaks, and targeting watchdog journalists."

"Aside from that, SBI agents are some of the best and most professionally-trained law enforcement agencies in San Francisco. Second only to the San Francisco Presidential Service guards. They have 3,500 employees with 1,200 of them being Special Agents and Tactical Responders. SBI agents are highly trained in advanced firearms training, crime scene management, crime investigations, forensic analyst, body language deduction, sign language, among other skills. The SBI field has its own special vehicles which come in a black four-door Ford Broncos and white 9C1 Chevy Caprice unmarked police cars. Comes equipped with bullet-proof coating. Their standard-issue sidearms are the .40 S&W Glock 22 while submachine guns comes included with HK MP5K and the Steyr TMP."
