User blog comment:Avery D. North/Bege didn't shoot Bobbbin, but I know who did/@comment-30127592-20170225234716

While a Germa soldier revolution would certainly add to the chaos about to happen, don't forget that Judge was willing to install an obedience program in his own daughter, which means he already had the means to do so decades ago. Even if his genetic programming tech didn't improve since then, he'd undoubtedly want the highest amount of direct control of his troops possible, so unless they somehow circumvent their programming Judge could likely just command the traitors to kill themselves and be done with it, if they were even capable of plotting treason in the first place.

The prisoner idea seems quite possible, and since Opera was too afraid to mention the breakout at the BM crew meeting, there's a good chance that no-one would be aware of the prisoners running amok on the island. If Bege is still gathering allies, he'd be foolish not to try and recruit some of them, or at least make use of them in some way. However, i wouldn't put it past Bege to have shot Bobbin himself ,especially with his preference for execution by gunshot.
