Report No: GT/GB-171008-044250227
Location: Denver, CO
Agents:
Summary:
Cell MASTICATE was activated under the cover identity “Task Force Holiday,” a newly fabricated DEA entity, and dispatched to Denver County Jail to investigate the suspicious and violent death of inmate Radomir Reznik. The case involves alleged unnatural phenomena, specifically the regurgitation of an “alien worm.” Early investigation strongly indicates an internal cover-up at the jail facility, exacerbated by severe staffing shortages and active interference with evidence.
Operation Report:
- Agents Booth, Parker, and Drummond arrived in Denver at approximately noon, joining Agents McCarter and Jay at the airport Starbucks. Jay introduced himself as assigned specifically to monitor McCarter due to his status as a Program asset possessing sensitivity to unnatural phenomena.
- Parker showed visible emotional distress due to an animal attack resulting in injury and the loss of his dog shortly before deployment.
- En route to the jail, Booth played a voicemail describing Reznik’s violent death, including the regurgitation of an unknown “alien worm,” an attack on a canine unit, and subsequent death caused by fire ignited from contraband accelerant.
- Agent Drummond reacted strongly upon hearing Reznik’s name, recognizing him from previous Delta Green operations involving the Cornucopia House investigation (2001).
- Upon arrival, agents introduced themselves as DEA agents investigating the death of their supposed informant (Reznik). Corrections Officer Miller displayed immediate nervousness upon learning their purpose and admitted significant staffing shortages due to illness.
- Miller provided the incident report authored by Sergeant Edward Pelez. The report detailed Reznik complaining of breathing issues, assaulting Sgt. Pelez, killing canine unit Keller, disabling a security camera, and dying after CERT team’s flashbang ignited an unseen contraband alcohol still in Reznik’s cell.
- Numerous discrepancies were quickly identified by the agents, including:
- The suspicious timing of security camera failure an hour prior to the incident.
- Implausible claims of inmate Reznik disabling cameras and secretly maintaining a contraband alcohol distillery.
- Multiple absences among critical staff, including Warden Malcolm Linscott and supervising officers, indicating active avoidance rather than legitimate illness.
- Agent Booth located a staff duty roster with the page for October 8th hastily torn out, indicating deliberate concealment of staffing details from the day of Reznik’s death. Booth noted that Sgt. Pelez had not officially reported as sick but was notably absent, suggesting he was a designated scapegoat.
- Drummond accessed internal email systems, discovering limited correspondence identifying Reznik (“Rads”) as a known drug offender but no direct evidence of wrongdoing communicated via email.
- Parker directly contacted Warden Linscott by phone, leaving a stern voicemail demanding immediate attention regarding staffing and incident irregularities.
- Review of surveillance footage by Parker and McCarter confirmed camera feeds near Reznik’s cell abruptly ceased at approximately 0600, one hour before the reported attack, contradicting official statements. No personnel appeared on the footage disabling cameras, implying deliberate sabotage by facility staff.
- Throughout the investigation, Agent Jay maintained proximity to McCarter without direct engagement in investigative actions, consistent with stated instructions to avoid direct exposure to unnatural elements.
Analysis and Recommendations:
The investigation has rapidly uncovered clear signs of internal deception and significant administrative irregularities within Denver County Jail. The concealment efforts (missing records, inconsistent staffing reports, camera sabotage) are amateurish but widespread, suggesting panic rather than organized conspiracy. However, A-Cell should remain cautious, as panic can rapidly escalate into violence or additional compromise of assets.
The presence of the inmate Radomir Reznik, previously associated with the unnatural activities at Cornucopia House, strongly suggests continuity of unnatural phenomena spanning at least sixteen years. The alleged “alien worm” described matches loosely with entities encountered in Operation BLUE SERPENT (Ref: 2002, Florida), potentially implying a reactivation or resurgence of unnatural biological entities previously thought neutralized.
Agent McCarter’s current operational status, described as both “asset” and potential threat, requires close monitoring. McCarter displays a measured approach and awareness of his vulnerabilities, but extended exposure to unnatural phenomena could trigger destabilization, as observed in Operation NIGHTSHADE. Agent Jay’s presence should be reevaluated frequently to determine his continued effectiveness or liability should his minimal exposure protocol be breached.
The sudden, significant staffing shortage at the jail poses a potential vector for unnatural contamination, particularly if the “flu” cited is related to exposure to Reznik or the entity. Immediate biohazard containment protocols are recommended, including mandatory screening and quarantine for all absent jail personnel.
Finally, Agent Parker’s psychological stability warrants observation following recent personal trauma (death of his animal companion). Emotional compromise could affect decision-making under stress, potentially exacerbating mission risk.
Immediate Actions Recommended for A-Cell:
- Initiate surveillance and locate Sergeant Pelez and Warden Linscott for immediate interrogation.
- Deploy medical investigation teams under CDC or equivalent cover to assess potential unnatural contamination risks.
- Cross-reference this incident immediately with similar occurrences or reports from other correctional facilities nationwide for potential broader contamination events or unnatural incursions.
- Increase operational oversight for Agent McCarter through covert surveillance until mission completion.
Session Notes
- The session began with the Handler (Luke) providing a recap of recent events:
- Graham Miles Drummond returned home injured after Operation Nimbus Pipe in Reno, disturbing his wife Ellie.
- Cole Parker struggled with trauma from witnessing Anthony Cooper’s unnatural ritual, privately studying Cooper’s unsettling notes.
- Frank Booth experienced a personal crisis, losing faith in the agency that previously structured his world.
- Graham Drummond had disturbing nightmares featuring rotting vines and silent, human-like faces.
- Frank Booth’s daughter, Nadia, encountered danger when her BMW was inexplicably filled with hornets.
- Cole Parker suffered the sudden and traumatic loss of his beloved dog, Checkers, who attacked him violently before dying of a seizure in his arms.
- The agents—Frank Booth, Cole Parker, and Graham Drummond—received a text message activating their Delta Green cell (MASTICATE) and assigning them to the newly formed DEA Task Force Holiday. They were instructed to investigate the violent death of Radomir Reznik at the Denver County Jail.
- Frank Booth, Cole Parker, and Graham Drummond boarded United Flight 484, arriving in Denver around noon on October 8th. Cole Parker had a visible bandage on his face from the dog attack and was prescribed antibiotics.
- The agents met at the baggage claim area, initially uncertain about the absence of Agent Matthew McCarter.
- Frank Booth called McCarter, who answered his encrypted phone and confirmed he was already waiting at a Starbucks within the airport alongside another agent identified only as “Jay.”
- At the Starbucks, McCarter appeared unusually professional and serious, dressed in a dark suit rather than his typical professor attire. Agent Jay was introduced as a very tall (6'7"–6'8"), burly African-American man in his early 30s, also dressed in a suit.
- Cole Parker explained Checkers’ sudden attack and subsequent death, clearly still emotionally shaken and grieving.
- Jay revealed that he was assigned specifically to watch over McCarter, who was identified as a “Program asset.” Jay explained that McCarter had special skills useful in detecting unnatural phenomena, but he required supervision because prolonged exposure to unnatural events could destabilize him emotionally or mentally, potentially making him dangerous.
- Booth texted Antonia Pizzarelli (their Delta Green contact) expressing concerns over McCarter’s new status and assignment. Pizzarelli responded that this mission was a trial run to evaluate McCarter’s effectiveness.
- It was confirmed that Task Force Holiday, supposedly created to investigate interstate narcotics trafficking after marijuana legalization, was actually only a paper entity, with the agents as its sole members, serving purely as cover for their actual Delta Green mission.
- In the rental SUV heading to the Denver County Jail, Booth played an unsettling voicemail detailing Reznik’s death. It described Reznik vomiting (corrected to “regurgitating”) an “alien worm” that engaged violently with a canine unit. Concussion grenades and an accidental fire from a contraband accelerant supposedly neutralized the threat.
- Drummond reacted strongly upon hearing Reznik’s name, suggesting familiarity with the name from past events (related to Cornucopia House, 2001).
- Jay reacted with shock at the mention of aliens, prompting brief speculation among the agents about whether “alien” was merely descriptive or literal. McCarter attempted to reassure Jay without causing unnecessary alarm.
- The agents arrived at the Denver County Jail, noting an unusually cold and snowy day for early October. They prepared firearms, with McCarter being armed specifically at Booth’s insistence.
- At the jail, Cole Parker introduced the group as DEA agents investigating Reznik’s death, causing immediate visible anxiety in Corrections Officer Miller, who explained she was filling in from the women’s side of the facility due to severe staff shortages. Miller stated that many staff, including the supervisor, were out sick, hinting at either an illness outbreak or a cover-up in progress.
- Parker insisted on speaking to the warden, Malcolm Linscott, but was informed he was also out sick. Parker requested the warden’s number, and Miller agreed to contact her supervisor to retrieve it.
- The agents noticed severe understaffing; Miller even left her security post unattended, further confirming suspicions of a chaotic internal situation at the facility.
- Drummond reviewed an official incident report provided by Officer Miller:
- Prisoner Reznik (Prisoner 179166) requested medical assistance, claiming breathing difficulties.
- Sergeant Edward Pelez responded, entering the cell, where Reznik violently assaulted him and fatally wounded the canine unit (Keller).
- Pelez escaped and locked Reznik back in the cell, calling for the Corrections Emergency Response Team (CERT).
- CERT threw a flashbang grenade upon entry, unintentionally igniting a contraband alcohol still, which resulted in Reznik’s death from fire.
- Agents quickly recognized multiple discrepancies and suspicious details in the incident report:
- Reznik allegedly disabling his cell’s camera.
- Presence of an unseen contraband still.
- Multiple staff absences conveniently coinciding with their arrival.
- Booth discovered a physical roster missing the page for October 8th, clearly torn out hastily, suggesting intentional concealment of staffing details from the incident day.
- Booth also discovered that Sergeant Pelez was scheduled for duty today but notably had not reported himself as sick, indicating he might have been selected as a scapegoat.
- Drummond accessed a logged-in terminal in the security office, uncovering internal emails among staff referencing Reznik (nicknamed “Rads”) as a known “druggie” and acknowledging his death in the fire, but no clear smoking gun implicating deliberate wrongdoing via email.
- Booth found an internal staff directory with contact numbers and attempted unsuccessfully to call Sergeant Pelez directly, encountering only voicemail.
- Parker met with Miller’s supervisor from the women’s facility side and secured Warden Linscott’s phone number. The supervisor subtly indicated a desire for Parker’s investigation to clear up the problematic situation swiftly, without directly accusing higher-ups of wrongdoing.
- Parker attempted to contact Warden Linscott directly, leaving a firm voicemail demanding immediate attention to the critical staffing shortage.
- The agents investigated the facility’s security footage:
- Parker and McCarter confirmed the footage around Reznik’s cell abruptly stopped recording at approximately 6:00 a.m., an hour before the reported incident, contradicting the claim that Reznik disabled the camera himself. This evidence further supported suspicions of an active cover-up.
- The session concluded with the agents recognizing they were in the midst of unraveling an extensive cover-up at the Denver County Jail, with many key figures conveniently unavailable or refusing to communicate, leaving MASTICATE to piece together the truth behind Reznik’s unnatural death.
