Update on the latest the taskforce is up to. Forward to anyone I've missed. And I think you're going to like this one.

As you know, the FBI has been focussing on the child snatching aspect of Mistra's operations, given that's primarily what we they are best at. The number of reports from the kids we rescued in Canada, plus accounts from other reclaimed operatives, led us to beleive Mistra had people acting within the social services departments. It makes sense- how else would they be getting information on kids manifesting mutations within foster care or, like Kyle, in custody?

For the past few months the Bureau's been working in conjunction with the human services departments on the quiet, and this morning there was an operation against those suspected of being involved with Mistra. They arrested fifty-two people across the country, all holding mid-level managerial positions within various departments dealing with child welfare. Others have absconded, and their mugshots are being distributed nationally and also to Interpol.

It'll take a few more days to wrap up, but it looks like we've effectively smashed Mistra's 'recruitment' (and I'm using that word very loosely) ability in this country. Combined with the movements on their financial holdings as came up in the last meeting (apologies for my absence, by the way), we've hamstrung them.

No more kids being taken. Isn't that an amazing thought?
