bounty

Beltran Trask was the most feared bounty hunter in the sector. Amongst the various legal entities that make up the Comity, his name was the one that the crats wanted attached to their reports, to have tagged their Wanteds, to have agreed to be on the case looking for their criminal.
They will undoubtedly be disappointed to hear that their hero of a thousand hunts and even more soaps, the infamous interplanetary peacekeeper, is now dead. I saw it happen, in a bar, where the man, tired and drunk, was shot in the back of the head by some psychotic lowlife he beat in a game of chess.
