Research Assistant Robert Anderson was a soldier and the chief scientist at the Mariposa Military Base, and was the head of the Forced Evolutionary Virus human testing.[1]
Background
On October 10, Spindel's soldiers discovered that the scientists at Mariposa were using military prisoners as test subjects in their experiments with the Forced Evolutionary Virus.[citation needed] Morale in the base dwindled, and Spindel suffered a mental breakdown, eventually committing suicide five days later.[citation needed] Roger Maxson, Spindel's second-in-command, assumed leadership.[citation needed]
Maxson captured Anderson and interrogated him, learning about the extent of his crew's actions.[citation needed] Anderson said that his orders came from the government, but Maxson did not believe him.[citation needed] He started screaming about how he was following orders, how he was a military man, but Maxson shot him, and the executions of the other scientists soon followed.[2]
Notes
One of the logs in the Vats control computer in Mariposa Military Base has Anderson's name, but his file has been corrupted and cannot be read.
