Recorded packet handler
“Establish my packet, location and event from the verified custody record.”
HARD · CASE FILE
Hard · NORTHBRIDGE EXHIBIT HALL
A camera’s state changed through manual toggles and a temporary service override. A printed event list includes a cancelled event that never happened. The archive retained the competing reconstructions in separate packets. Rebuild their custody events, identify the proposal supported by the analytical records, then name that packet’s recorded handler. The packet events form a separate ordered register; do not substitute a calculated clock time for a review-slot label.
Read the case file below, or open the interactive desk to examine records, keep notes and submit your reasoning. These are the case materials, without the solution.
Who handled the packet containing the supported reconstruction?

Read each record on its own terms. A claim made by a person is different from a fact established by an independent record.
VERIFIED RECORD C
From 18:10 inclusive until 18:18 exclusive, an override forces recording OFF, regardless of the stored manual state. At 18:18 the stored state resumes.
The question falls inside an override, so stored state alone does not prove recording.
CONTEXT NOTE
The camera points at the west display. Direction does not establish whether it recorded.
This describes the setting; it does not establish the requested result.
VERIFIED RECORD A
At 18:00 the camera is recording. Valid manual toggles occur at 18:03, 18:07, 18:12 and 18:16. Each valid toggle reverses its stored manual state.
Track the stored state through the valid toggles.
VERIFIED RECORD B
The printed 18:09 toggle was cancelled before execution. It does not change the stored state. No other manual toggle exists.
Do not count a cancelled instruction as an event.
RECONSTRUCTION RECORD
This is the same investigation’s packet custody record. There are 5 ordered events, labelled Review 1, Review 2, Review 3, Review 4, Review 5. Each listed person, location and item occurs exactly once. These slots describe record order, not times from the analytical problem. Each packet contains the proposed reconstruction shown in the index. Solve the original three analytical records to identify the supported proposal, then trace its packet to its handler. Control packets have no proposal and cannot be the target.
| Packet | Proposed analytical answer |
|---|---|
| Packet Amber | ON; stored manual state ON |
| Packet Birch | OFF; stored manual state ON |
| Packet Cedar | OFF; stored manual state OFF |
| Packet Dune | ON; stored manual state OFF |
| Packet Elm | Control packet: no analytical proposal |
Use each column’s choices exactly once. Verified relationships govern the board; proposed answers and later recollections do not override them.
RECONSTRUCTION RECORD
The relationships below were verified independently. “A immediately before B” means A is in the row directly above B, with no row between them. Keep relationships from all worksheet sources together.

Compare the records with each account. Work out what the evidence establishes, then separate that finding from anything it does not prove.
