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.)

Bas-Rhin. La DZ Mafia impliquée dans un enlèvement à Strasbourg
Deux membres présumés de la DZ Mafia, âgés de 22 et 19 ans, sont impliqués dans une affaire denlèvement et de séquestration à Strasbourg. Venus spécialement de Marseille pour faire leurs preuves et intégrer les rangs de la mafia phocéenne , ils ont ciblé une jeune femme de 25 ans pour ses fréquentations, notamment un proche vivant à Dubaï qui a fait fortune dans la cryptomonnaie.
Selon nos informations, lun des suspects sest présenté à son domicile en tant que livreur. La victime, qui attendait un colis, est allée lui ouvrir. Aussitôt, les deux hommes lont attrapée et mise à larrière dune camionnette, prenant soin de la ligoter et de la bâillonner. Lobjectif ? Faire chanter son ami fortuné. Sauf quun témoin, qui a assisté à la scène, a eu le réflexe de relever le numéro dimmatriculation du véhicule et de prévenir la police.
Ligotée dans une camionnette en forêt du Neuhof
Grâce à sa vigilance, la jeune femme a pu être retrouvée saine et sauve. Les enquêteurs lont découverte ligotée dans une camionnette dans la forêt du Neuhof.
Les suspects, qui ont ensuite été arrêtés, réclamaient 600 000 euros à lami de la jeune femme et menaçaient de lui couper un doigt.
À lissue de leur garde à vue, les deux hommes ont été transférés à la JIRS de Nancy. Contactée, la juridiction nancéenne a refusé de se prononcer quant aux liens présumés des deux hommes avec la DZ mafia. En revanche, elle indique quils ont été mis en examen pour enlèvement, séquestration et menaces de mort, association de malfaiteurs en vue de la préparation dun crime en bande organisée, et tentative dextorsion en bande organisée. Ils ont été placés en détention provisoire.
