Sullivan's Testimony (Recorded August 2056)

"I'm Inspector James Sullivan. I've worked Border Management for 15 years. I'm coming forward because I can't live with what I've been ordered to do."

"We have quotas. Mandatory denial quotas. 15-20% of all crossing attempts must be denied, regardless of documentation validity."

"It's in our training materials. It's in our performance reviews. We get bonuses for meeting denial targets. I've personally denied hundreds of people with perfect documentation just to hit my numbers."

"The documentation system is designed to be impossible. We're trained to find reasons to deny. 'Photo quality insufficient.' 'Signature doesn't match.' 'Form filled out incorrectly.' These are excuses. The documentation is fine. We deny them anyway."

"I've watched people beg. Families. Pregnant women. People with job offers. Medical emergencies. We deny them to meet quotas. Some of them die from it. We know this. We do it anyway."

"This isn't security. This is population control. It's evil. I won't do it anymore."
