Smuggler's confession

The smuggler's confession is a holotape located on the corpse of a dead smuggler in the Point Lookout Fallout 3 add-on.

The holotape is the recording of a smuggler named John Adlam, who is confessing to thievery at "the group's claim". He goes into detail that he is to be shot by his brother Richard Adlam, after his father, Joseph Adlam gave consent. He also explains, that with his execution "the punishment will be exacted and the Adlam name will be avenged."

 * When approaching the cathedral from Haley's Hardware, you may find the smuggler walking around at the bottom of the cliff. He will be marked as friendly. Once you get a certain distance from him, his head gets blown off.
 * The smuggler might be found outside the door to Herzog Mine upon exiting Herzog Mine, crouched (cowering) in "fleeing" mode. Pickpocketing him shows that he is carrying a frag grenade, police baton, and the smuggler's confession. Talking to him once he stops fleeing leads to a bar that normally highlights dialogue coming up, but with no dialogue at all, at which point the dialogue option automatically ends. If you shoot him, he becomes hostile, and on death he will have the exactly the same inventory that you pickpocketed from him before, including the Smuggler Confession holotape.
