A second recovery pass was completed where the first pass yielded fewer than three accepted incidents. Coverage Notes: Every assigned county received separate state-qualified broad and direct-source checks. Named aliases and official/public-safety, fire/rescue, emergency-management, state/highway, traffic, local television, local newspaper, campus/public-safety, and regional-news families were checked where available. Coverage is moderate; provisional records preserve the exact evidence limitations. Known Gaps: - Some county agency pages exposed no timely incident index; local-source depth was thinner outside the principal city. - Provisional records require follow-up for outcome, exact scene, or timing precision.
