Malgus' Escape
"The methodology of Malgus's escape is, unfortunately, very simple, but it remains unknown at this time whether Malgus himself was involved in its planning or had any prior knowledge that Shae Vizla would free him. Despite various conjectures, there is no definitive evidence to support any of them as of this report.
Pressure from Alliance stakeholders forced this investigation to focus an inordinate amount of time and resources on the question of whether or not Vizla's Tra'tade--coalition of Mandalorian clans--or any of her close associates were aware that she was going to free Malgus. Nothing suggests that they did, and ample evidence conclusively proves that most did not or could not have known--not that this investigator expects this report to bring an end to the finger-pointing.
Reactions have been of consistent anger and surprise, with some additional variation. The Republic Strategic Information Service and Sith Intelligence continue to assign the blame of failing to anticipate Vizla's actions on each other. The Sith Sphere of Military Command has taken advantage of the situation, regaining authority within the Empire that it had lost to the Sphere of Galactic Influence as a result of Alliance politics. Republic High Command, perpetually stretched thin across Republic zones of influence, cannot reach consensus on how the military should prepare for Malgus's next move without further intelligence on his and Vizla's whereabouts and intentions.
The final conclusion of this report, and perhaps the most frightening, is that this investigation has been entirely unable to determine Shae Vizla's motivations for freeing Malgus or what either of them intends to do next. Until credible intelligence can resolve those mysteries, the Alliance and its associates will remain fraught with suspicion, which itself could be part of Malgus's plans, whatever they may be."
