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).

4 suspects arrested in Montreal kidnapping
Kidnappers allegedly ambushed couple in the Ahuntsic-Cartierville district, police say
Montreal police have arrested four suspects in connection with the alleged kidnapping and confinement of a couple in their 20s on March 10.
Police say the motive was to steal cryptocurrency, credit cards and other goods.
The Service de police de la Ville de Montréal (SPVM) said Monday that the first three suspects, aged 18 and 19, were arrested on May 8 in Montreal. They appeared at the courthouse to face charges including kidnapping, forcible confinement, robbery and unauthorized possession of a firearm.
The fourth suspect, a 21-year-old, was arrested at the Calgary International Airport on Friday after fleeing Quebec. He will be returned to Montreal this week to appear at the courthouse.
The SPVM also reported that searches in Rivière-des-Prairies-Pointe-aux-Trembles and Mercier-Hochelaga-Maisonneuve boroughs resulted in the seizure of a loaded firearm, ammunition, and a device for converting a pistol into an automatic weapon (Glock switch).
According to the police, a man and a woman in their 20s were ambushed in the Ahuntsic-Cartierville district.
Late in the evening, armed and hooded suspects appeared and ordered them to board two separate vehicles.
A few hours later, the two victims were found in Dorval, one with facial injuries. Both victims are currently "doing well," said police.
The kidnappers allegedly succeeded in robbing the couple of nearly $25,000 in cryptocurrency, credit cards and certain goods that the victims had in their possession.
The investigation is ongoing, with the SPVM indicating the possible involvement of other individuals.
