I Fought the Law

I Fought the Law is a side job in.

Walkthrough
At one point after Life During Wartime, you'll get a call from an Elizabeth Peralez, wife to mayoral candidate, Jefferson Peralez. She doesn't wish to discuss anything over the holo so requests you meet her in person.

Once you reach the meeting point, get in the car where you can then talk more freely with the couple, who note their suspicions that they believe Night City's late mayor, Lucius Rhyne, was killed rather than dying from heart complications. They'll then ask you to scroll a braindance from an attempted attack on Rhyne shortly before he actually died to see if you can get any clues from it. You'll learn a few key pieces of evidence from it, namely an NCPD detective, River Ward, showed up needing to talk with their security just before the attack, that a place called the Red Queen's Race was mentioned, and Weldon Holt, the deputy mayor, is running as the other mayoral candidate now.

Ask whatever questions you wish with Jefferson, who'll then give you River's contact information to call the detective.

Journal Entry

 * Initial entry:
 * Look, if a job starts like a classic whodunit - some femme fatale calls you up, refuses to give deets and just calls a meet - one of three things is going down: you're dreaming, you're scrollin' a shit BD or someone's hazing you good. Think you can scratch the first two.
 * Later entry:
 * First rule of "top secret" jobs - don't take em. First rule of working with politicians - don't do it. First rule of contacting the police - avoid it. And what do you do? Break 'em all at once. Gotta say, V, I'm a little impressed.

Objectives

 * Meet with Elizabeth Peralez.
 * Get in the car.
 * Listen to the offer.
 * Watch the braindance and look for clues.
 * Exit the braindance.
 * Talk to Jefferson.
 * Cal Detective Ward.

Trivia

 * The name of this quest is a reference to the song "I Fought the Law," which was recorded by The Crickets in 1958-1959 and released in 1960. The song was written by Sonny Curtis.
