StellarCrowandClaude Fable 5.1 499fd61f79 feat(sources): fetch linked URLs for the 252 spreadsheet-only cases
Until now only cases 357+ (plus a few older ones) had their linked URLs
fetched; the other 252 dossiers held just the text pasted into the
spreadsheet, often only the lede. This pass fetches every linked URL for
those cases so the full text is on file before link rot takes it.

- stage_all.py: new --include-sheet-cases flag that lifts the skip on
  cases holding spreadsheet articles. Resumable as before.
- staging/: raw extracts and index.json for the 252 cases.
- sourced-articles.json, case-files-manifest.json: 188 new UNTRIMMED
  blocks. 179 cases gained at least one fetched article; 73 got none
  (49 BLOCKED, 18 THIN, 9 DEAD, 4 video/social, 3 ERROR).
- sources/*.txt: rebuilt with build_cases.py --all. Sheet pastes are
  kept; fetched blocks sit beside them under the NOT YET TRIMMED banner.
  Files previously committed with CRLF are now LF.
- wayback-availability.json: Wayback snapshots exist for 73 of the 98
  failed URL slots; input for an archive-fetch pass.
- README-START-HERE.md: progress note and next step.

verify_all.py PASSES (1836 checks).

19-year-old Winnipeg man held at gunpoint, assaulted, tied up during Bitcoin transaction
Man arranged transaction with someone from social media, police say
A 19-year-old man was held at gunpoint, assaulted and tied up during what was supposed to be a Bitcoin transaction on Monday evening, police said in a news release Wednesday.
Police met with the man around 5 p.m. Monday at a hospital where he went to have his injuries treated.
The 19-year-old told police he arranged to meet someone from social media in the parking lot of a Winnipeg high school with the intention of exchanging his money for Bitcoin.
When he got into the person's car, he was immediately held at gunpoint, assaulted, tied up and driven around by a man who demanded his money, Winnipeg police public information officer Const. Dani McKinnon said.
When the vehicle eventually stopped, he escaped and ran for help. He was treated for his injuries and released from the hospital.
Later that evening, police arrested a 22-year-old Winnipeg man on Broadway near the Manitoba legislature.
The suspect is charged with armed robbery using a firearm, pointing a firearm, two counts of assault with a weapon, forcible confinement, uttering threats to kill, failure to comply with an undertaking and two counts of possession of a firearm or restricted weapon.
