This is not about slavery, this is about an accident that caused suffering. Traders with poor reputations can be found anywhere.
I would go further and say that this is also about the evils of gambling.
It clearly demonstrates how gambling can lead to an abandonment of one's responsibilities.

Darius, we're not looking at it from the perspective of "if they're not from the Republic, we don't care".
If they're not from the Republic, it's none of your business.
And until there's unequivocal evidence that they are from the Republic, we shall assume that they are not.

Originally from the Republic or not, they belong here.
Oh, I do agree with that. Like I said, they should be welcome home regardless of whether it is their first or second time here. How heartless do you still believe me, Darius, that you need to stress this to me?
In any case, I cannot see a problem there even taking into account Amarr law. Leaving people to starve like that is pretty much an indication that their "owners" by the Amarr law do not want them, anyway. They were renounced by both possible holders and transferred to the care of the station authorities, who in turn placed in the care of the Servant Sisters of Eve, who now wish to give them safe passage home. Should be clear and I see no reason why we should not assist the good Sisters with the practicalities of the transport without any harassment from local authorities or paramilitaries.
The question (that still remains) about the possible involvement of illegal slavetrade of Republic citizens in this is not about whether they should be allowed to come here or not. It is a separate issue completely.
Elsebeth
This isn't an issue for the Servant Sisters. If the slaves have been abandoned, they should either be passed to the SPCS or to the liege of the merchants.

I do not claim expertise in Amarr law, but I think that it is not your call to whom to pass the care of abandoned slaves, Rodj Blake, but the call of whatever authority that has the charge of them. In this case, the legal station authorities decided to call in the Servant Sisters of Eve.
Elsebeth Rhiannon
The Sisters were called in to assist with the healthcare of the slaves, not to take over custodianship of them.
As the Theology Council spokesman said, it's not for the Sisters of Eve to tell the Empire what the Laws say. It's not up to you either.

Republic citizens must realize that there is a de-facto war of annihilation on against all of us personally, not as citizens of a state, but personally as human beings.
Annihilation? If you want to talk about annihilation let's talk about the one hundred thousand slaves murdered by Minmatar terrorists earlier this week, shall we?
