While the rise in organized crime in Freeside is worrying, the NVPD aren’t in much of a state to tackle the problem as they’re barely removed from being gang members themselves. Assuming this “rival” outfit is as organized as you’re warned about, you decide to act with a little more tact than just walking in and blasting everyone.
To that end, you dispatch Boone to sulk around Freeside for a month and see if he can figure out if this is as much of an issue as The King is worried about. You give him a month to investigate and Boone promises to return with actionable intel.
Nearly a month to that meeting, Jane lets you know that Boone has scheduled a meeting with you to discuss what he’s found. More than a little interested, you clear your schedule and have him meet you in your office that same day.
A few hours after, Boone struts in sans his signature beret and his rifle. Wearing instead the outfit of a common homesteader. He sits down in the chair across from you without a greeting.
“Okay, here’s the situation. The King wasn’t lying when he said there’s a substantial organized crime presence in Freeside that wasn’t there a few months ago. Here’s what I know for a fact. It seems to be one singular crime family, pretty uniform in their operations. No, I don’t recognize them but everything seems professional.“
He stops talking to take out a piece of scratch paper before resuming.
“Second, their activities seem to range from extortion, prostitution, gambling, drug dealing, robbery and everything in between. I have a few locations that seem to be hubs of this activity, but I don’t think any are their headquarters. Along with these safe houses, I’ve identified a handful of their lieutenants and know their patterns, which open up the possibility for arrests or more likely, snatch and grabs. I’ve written their locations down on this paper for you.”
Boone places the unfolded piece of scrap paper on your desk.
“One last thing. They’re well-armed. The foot soldiers have basic weaponry like .32s and the occasional 9mm or 10MM, but the lieutenants have laser pistols. I don’t know where the hell they got those from, maybe the Van Graffs? I did catch the name of their little outfit though, the Salvatores.”
Motherfucker. You didn’t stay long but you’ve visited that hive of scum and villainy called New Reno. The Salvatores’ are one of the more enigmatic groups in that city and while you never had a run in with them, you’ve heard some strange rumors.
“The NVPD aren’t exactly trained in anti-gang operations and I think there’s a real risk of a full-on gang war breaking out in Freeside if we go guns blazing. I don’t know how long these Salvatores have been here but they’ve grown quick.”
Any other questions for Boone? Will consider this action finished but will answer any from the POV of Boone
