The **Hadford Homicides**were a series of murders in the small town of Hadford, Montana.

## Background

Jill Powell and her family had just moved to Montana after Jill's father Arnold had gotten a new job. That same day, two young women-Lacey Price and Louise Smith-also arrived in town, along with Emmett Mack, a wanderer originally from Michigan.

Unbeknownst to them, their arrival in the town triggered a chain reaction of events that changed the lives of everybody in Hadford forever.

## Course of events

First, CIA agent Blackfish-3 (under alias Clyde Walcott) had been seen spying on Lacey and Louse (though Emmett mistakenly believed he was spying on Jill Powell). The next day, he was found dead.

The CIA, mistakenly believing Jill had something to do with it, sent agents to tail Jill and her friends, which culmilated with two assets attacking Jill, only to be stopped by the arrival of an all-female fighting force known as Shadow Force.

Eventually, word got out that the CIA was experimenting on people illegally in Montana and Emmett put together the Covert Crusaders as a result (NOTE: He didn't officially name the team yet) in order to shut the CIA program down and protect Jill Powell at the same time.

He first investigated Lacey and Louise, but they refused to say anything about their involvement.

It was only after another CIA attack on the Powells that Emmett finally found the truth behind Louise and Lacey and Operation Blackfish in the process.

He then worked with the two of them, as well as his own team of fighters, the Covert Crusaders, to go on the offensive: acting on intelligence from neighbor and friend Audrey Adams, Emmett and his friends launched an assault on a CIA safehouse outside Hadford and stole documents pertaining to the project and exposed them to the public, leading to the end of Blackfish and the permanent end of the manhunt for Tamara and her allies.

## Aftermath

The international community was appalled by the CIA's actions upon the exposure of Blackfish to the public. It also damaged the United States' relations with various countries as a result. The manhunt and the homicides, regarded as a "war crime" by the international community, went down in history as the "biggest act of injustice" in human history.

To add insult to injury, CIA director Arthur Holmes was able to avoid a conviction by cleverly lying to the US government during his trial, outraging the American public.
