Looking into Thunder Corp. would turn up little officially-recorded shifty business to be found - but it should stand out that for as unprecedentedly productive as they've been since midway last year, they've spent remarkably little. There will be no record of having gone through any illegal dealings to acquire any money to fund their recent operations or the technology that they've been boasting about to cut costs - but likewise, there'll be no record of how they came by the technology or where they got the funding to research it for themselves, either.

Anything suspicious goings-on in Locke City are not known by federal parties any more than the general public - and it's wanted to stay that way; Edwards, Sherman, and other police officials will avoid touching on anything abnormal with Gerald as much as possible!
