Pardon me, but my memory's getting crusty. Does Team B have any idea where to look for Jess? In other words, where is Ilyanna driving her Jetta to?

See below. It's been over a month since the last relevant post for Team B. The first quote is from the GSRN News Post and other is from pg.3 of the current storyline chapter.[/color]

Syndicate Financier Killed
Investigating reports of gunfire, police found the body of Oleg Petrovski in his Omsk penthouse. Petrovski, under house arrest pending investigation of his ties to a national criminal syndicate, was found lying in the bathroom with a single entry wound in the back of his head.
According to police sources, the body showed chafing at the wrists, indicating that Petrovski may have been bound before being killed. MVD representatives offered no explanation for the murder. Said Chief Inspector Kiriliakov:
"We are currently investigating several possibilities. It could simply be an act of passion by someone who disliked him, but if there's any syndicate involvement in this, we'll find out."
Petrovski rose to infamy several years ago when it was publicly revealed that he had laundered significant amounts of cash for the Russian mafia.
Although confined to his penthouse since then, his trial has been delayed by various legal movements surrounding the legality of his arrest and the evidence gathered against him.

On the way to Omsk, the Team does a bit of legwork on Mr. Petrovski's penthouse. Ironically, it was about 2km away from the Agency safehouse. Small world.
Listening to news feeds, it seems that the FSB have cordoned off several square blocks around Petrovski's residence since the shooting.
Petrovski's #1, Vladimir Oromov, while also under suspicion of aiding his laundering scheme has since disappeared. The two officers surveilling his home have also turned up missing. [/quote]
