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.)

Man convicted in violent Bitcoin robbery during classified ad deal & separate shooting
The Midden-Nederland court sentenced 19-year-old Ario S. to three years in prison, one of which was conditionally suspended, for a violent robbery in which he helped steal the victims cryptocurrencies, specifically, Bitcoin and Ethereum. The man was also sentenced to 8 months in prison for a separate case in which he shot a man and left him blind in one eye.
The cryptocurrency robbery happened on 3 December 2022. The victim responded to a Marktplaats ad to buy Bitcoin. He went to the agreed address in Lelystad and was attacked by several men. They beat him up, hit him in the head with a firearm, and forced him to transfer around 30,000 euros worth of his cryptocurrency to them.
The police traced the victims cryptocurrency to the S.s digital wallet. The authorities also found a converted gas pistol under the pillow of a now-convicted co-suspect in this case that looks strikingly like a weapon S. is holding in photos on his phone. The victims DNA was also found on the pistol.
In court, S. claimed that he only had the coins because he had to exchange them for the victim. But the court did not believe this explanation. The court sentenced S. to three years in prison, one of which is conditionally suspended, and ordered him to pay over 8,000 euros in damages to the victim—S.s share of the loot.

Man convicted in violent Bitcoin robbery during classified ad deal & separate shooting | NL Times
The Midden-Nederland court sentenced 19-year-old Ario S. to three years in prison, one of which was conditionally suspended, for a violent robbery in which he helped steal the victims cryptocurrencies, specifically, Bitcoin and Ethereum. The man was also sentenced to 8 months in prison for a separate case in which he shot a man and left him blind in one eye.
The cryptocurrency robbery happened on 3 December 2022. The victim responded to a Marktplaats ad to buy Bitcoin. He went to the agreed address in Lelystad and was attacked by several men. They beat him up, hit him in the head with a firearm, and forced him to transfer around 30,000 euros worth of his cryptocurrency to them.
The police traced the victims cryptocurrency to the S.s digital wallet. The authorities also found a converted gas pistol under the pillow of a now-convicted co-suspect in this case that looks strikingly like a weapon S. is holding in photos on his phone. The victims DNA was also found on the pistol.
In court, S. claimed that he only had the coins because he had to exchange them for the victim. But the court did not believe this explanation. The court sentenced S. to three years in prison, one of which is conditionally suspended, and ordered him to pay over 8,000 euros in damages to the victim—S.s share of the loot.
In a separate case, the same court convicted S. of a shooting committed when he was still a minor on 12 September 2022. An argument about drugs ended in a brawl, and S. shot another man in the head with a converted alarm pistol, blinding him in one eye. The bullet is still in the victims head and cannot be removed.
In court, S. said that he acted in self-defense and that he acted in a heightened state without thinking. In Wednesdays ruling, the court agreed that there was a need for S. to defend himself, but not in the way he did it.
Although the victim repeatedly sought confrontation with S., he was unarmed, the court pointed out. It also did not believe that S. had not considered his actions - he first walked to the shed to get the weapon and then threateningly reloaded it several times to scare the victim before firing the potentially lethal shot at the victims head. That does not describe an impulsive act.
The court sentenced him to eight months of juvenile detention for the shooting. Given that the suspect is now an adult, the court determined that this juvenile detention would be served in a regular penitentiary institution instead of a juvenile detention center.
