StellarCrowandClaude Fable 5.1 439e83a4cb feat(sources): Wayback pass, automatic trimming, detention rule, ten cases re-sourced
Second and third rounds on the dossier pipeline, reviewed locally before commit.

Retrieval
- wayback_pass.py: retries every BLOCKED/DEAD/THIN/ERROR linked source through
  the Wayback Machine; blocks carry the snapshot date, archive URL and the live
  verdict. 143 slots retried: 93 fetched, 37 no snapshot, 12 script shells, 1 PDF.
- fetch_sources.py: fetch_wayback() helper.
- add_extra_sources.py: files staged extra_* finds (web search, not on the DB
  record) into the store with a provenance note.
- Cases re-sourced by web search: 248 (Oslo: Document.no, Avisa Oslo, NRK; the
  linked Le Parisien piece is case 242 and is marked OFF-CASE), 258 Kharkiv,
  260 Singapore, 358 Bangkok, 365 Las Vegas, 388 Verneuil-sur-Seine, 390 Zoersel,
  430 Homestead. 341 of 364 cases now hold a fetched article; 11, 66 and 399
  have no public text source (podcast, police video, direct victim report).

Trimming
- auto_trim.py: case-anchored furniture cut for UNTRIMMED blocks. Finds the body
  run that mentions the case, merges across subheadings and short furniture
  gaps, drops teasers, share bars, date/URL/caption lines and subscription
  pitches; refuses pages with no record term or almost no body. 302 blocks
  trimmed; 16 left on auto-trim-review.md (7 OFF-CASE suspects). Every cut is
  labelled AUTO-TRIMMED, UNREVIEWED in the dossier; the full extract stays in
  staging/. Decisions with anchors in trim-decisions-auto.json.
- build_cases.py / verify_all.py: banners for auto-trimmed and archived blocks,
  staged-file check extended to Wayback blocks, flag legend under the record.

Detention rule
- README "Definitions": the DB field `kidnappings` is the DETENTION violence
  type (victim, guard, staff or relative held to force submission or execute
  the theft), distinct from the Kidnapping scenario (taken away and held).
- detention-flag-review.md / detention-flag-corrections.json: 40 records
  reviewed with evidence; 30 set-to-1 proposals accepted by the owner on
  2026-09-06 (listed in corrections-approved.md), 10 still open.
- apply_detention_wording.py: "Violence Used" in the 70 reviewed summaries now
  names detention explicitly (62 of 70 labelled), supported by the summary's
  own text; idempotent; supersedes the batch scripts' wording.

Worklist and docs
- sofia-worklist.md: 248 decisions, detention rule item replacing the old
  "no abduction" item, fresh-search section for the textless cases.
- README-START-HERE.md: progress notes, run commands, next steps.
- Bug fixed in passing: Wayback blocks stored in-memory text with carriage
  returns; now stored as read back from disk.

verify_all.py PASSES (2321 checks).

(flag legend: 'kidnappings' is the DETENTION flag — 1 when the victim was held against
their will at any point, tied, locked in, held at gunpoint or taken away; it is NOT the
same as the 'Kidnapping' scenario, which means taken away and held. See README, Definitions.)
AI SUMMARY [revised on review, verified against the sources in this file. Live DB still holds the shorter bulk-import summary — apply this to it.]
**Victims:** An undisclosed man in central Limassol, Cyprus, who had arranged to buy cryptocurrency in person.
**Attackers:** Two men who set up the meeting — one carried out the robbery while the other kept watch. A 31-year-old was arrested; the man who fled with the cash was still being sought.
**Attack Method:** On Christmas Eve 2024 the victim came to a noon meeting carrying €100,000 in cash to buy crypto; as he waited in his car, one man ran up, struck him about the face, grabbed the backpack of cash, and fled on foot.
**Violence Used:** No detention — a daylight snatch: he was hit across the head and face as he waited in his car.
**Crypto Demanded/Stolen:** No cryptocurrency changed hands; the robbers took €100,000 in cash.
**Status:** The victim detained the lookout until police arrived, leading to the 31-year-old's arrest; Limassol CID was interviewing witnesses and pursuing the second suspect and possible accomplices.

Christmas Eve Limassol heist as man gets away with 100 thousand in cash | en.philenews.com
A violent robbery in broad daylight at a central Limassol area is being investigated by the local CID as a man was lured into a meeting for the purchase of cryptocurrency, only to be hit across the head and have his money stolen.
As the victim testified, he had set up the exchange with two men at noon, carrying 100 thousand euro in cash to buy the cryptocurrency. As he was waiting in the car, one of the two individuals run up to him and managed blows over his face, grabbed a backpack containing the amount and fled on foot.
The second man involved, keeping watch at the scene, was apprehended by the victim until police arrived. The 31 year old was subsequently arrested while the suspect with the cash is still being sought.
The Limassol CID is conducting interviews with locals who might have witnessed the incident and is looking for possible accomplices of the robbers.
