I hope Jen will take her recording to a different city to ask for government involvement. Having dirt against someone so high up it's painfully obvious he's bought the local police, fight fire with fire. Blackmail him with the recording into releasing all of his 'hostages'.
Whatever happens, ill be waiting for that update email.
