People's Inquest, The
this grass-roots organization was founded on Coruscant, during the years leading up to the Clone Wars. The People's Inquest was formed as a watchdog group to monitor the activities of the Jedi Knights, who were becoming increasingly insular and withdrawn from the public eye. They were eventually shut down by the Old Republic for a variety of reasons, including "inadequate licensing" and "signal purity violations". Supporters of the Inquest were arrested during protests outside the Senate Rotunda on the grounds of maintaining security, and many believed that the organization was doomed. However, founder Thrynka Padaunete managed to persevere, and eventually re-established a public infocache based on a remote Outer Rim world during the height of the Clone Wars.
