Open Resolves by 10 Oct 26 — graded at the weekly Reckoning against the criteria above, and recorded here.
As logged at issue
It's likely South Korean prosecutors formally indict at least one of this week's two arrested Chinese nationals within 60 days, continuing the faster charge-to-conviction cadence seen in this year's earlier espionage cases -- unless the investigation uncovers a wider network that delays charges.
