Chapter 372: Young Master Graves' Thoughts

Marcel Jefferson told Purple Summers that Aria Jackson was undergoing a procedural inquiry for unauthorized investigation and might be punished after being reported.

It's an exaggeration to say she has been "arrested," but Aria is indeed restricted in her movements and can't leave Clearwater City in the short term.

But how could Aria have been reported?

Although an officer cannot investigate at will without permission from a prosecutor, in practice, if a police officer discovers anything suspicious, they are not required to report everything to the prosecutor. To be more efficient, the prosecutor usually turns a blind eye to minor violations of procedure during an in-depth investigation.
