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.)

Forest Hills Crypto Heist Flops As Armed Trio Botches Ledger Grab,
An attempted stickup over a so-called "cryptocurrency ledger" rattled a Forest Hills corner on June 29, when three armed men approached a 49-year-old man and a 46-year-old woman near 70 Road and 110 Street at about 8:15 p.m., according to police. The suspects demanded the device, but fled on foot without taking any property, and investigators are now asking neighbors to comb through any security footage from that evening.

The city’s Crime Stoppers account posted a wanted bulletin on July 9 describing the June 29 confrontation, stating the suspects were armed and demanded a "cryptocurrency ledger." Investigators included still photos of the three people of interest and said the attackers ultimately walked away empty-handed, without getting any of the victims' property. The alert urges anyone with information or video from that time frame to come forward, according to NYPD Crime Stoppers.
Crime Stoppers is offering up to $3,500 for information that leads to an arrest and indictment, and says tipsters can remain anonymous. People can call 1-800-577-TIPS (8477) or, for Spanish speakers, 1-888-57-PISTA (74782), or send an online tip through the NYPD’s Crime Stoppers portal. The program, administered by the New York City Police Foundation, does not require callers to identify themselves, according to NYPD Crime Stoppers.
Part Of A Growing Pattern Of Crypto-Targeted Crimes
Crimes that target physical access to cryptocurrency, often called "wrench attacks," have climbed in recent years, with security firms documenting more violent attempts to force victims into surrendering wallets or private keys. Experts say 2025 marked a notable spike in such coercion cases, prompting calls for multisig setups and tighter operational security. The phenomenon has become an escalating concern, according to CertiK.
Police are asking residents and businesses along 70 Road and 110 Street to review doorbell, building and dash‑camera footage from the night of June 29 and to share anything that might show the trio or their movements. No arrests have been announced and detectives say the investigation remains active, according to NYPD Crime Stoppers.
Anyone with relevant information can also contact their local precinct; tipsters whose information leads to an arrest and indictment may be eligible for a reward, according to NYPD Crime Stoppers. Investigators say they continue to review footage and follow up on leads from the community.
