William Seeley, a detention officer has been taken into custody. He was a long time friend of Ronning’s last victim. He had motive and access, not only access to the victim but access to the digital tapes that would have most likely shown him entering and exiting Ronning’s cell.

If characters want to go about interacting with this kind of thing, how do they go about that?

E-mail, Skype, or PM if it is super secret. Here if it is something you want done in the open.

John will be mentioning to any of the PCs that he's up for a way to save the man. For reference, he can become invisible or unobtrusive if needed (I rarely use this power, but Phantasmal and Silent Key Shroud are handy), in addition to his more well known capabilities.
By the way, I think we should do this as a game, unless we can come up with some trivially easy plan. Could be fun.

I'm in! Definitely not okay with letting an innocent man have his life ruined for a crime he didn't commit.
First, we should talk to the officer and find out what he was doing at the time of Ronning's death.
Second, we should establish that there's going to be a complete lack of physical evidence: (hopefully with May's help, but if not standard crime lab might do) There is no bullet to be found in the cell. No evidence of discharge. The officer's weapon is not missing a round (fingers crossed on this one), especially given that it would have been thoroughly checked before his shift. And there should be an absence of GSR on his clothing and person.
In short, pursue a legal course of action until no longer capable of doing so.

The tricky ppart is going to be that any investigation and trial would be farmed out due to conflict of interest. While he isn't famous, most people do know him. He would transport inmates to the court for their hearings. Even his incarnation awaiting trial has been farmedout to the next county (you don't keep a jailer in his own jail.) He is being kept in solitary for his own protextion-lot of good it did Ronning-because inmates would be very likely to cause him harm.

William Seeley has confessed to Ronning's murder as part of a plea deal sparing himself the death sentence, Assistant Attorney General Diana Kralick revealed to the press today.
