The crime: there are three IAs who control the city. Each has it's own weaponry.
The White Queen controls the SUZI security android force.
The Medusa has an army of killbots -- floating little poison-infected things that can key onto an individual's biology.
Amaryllis controls nanobiotechnology. That's used for both medical and security purposes.
Robots have certain other powers. They can see into the future. Some see better than others. The ones who see all the paths are called Cassandras. The Cassandras were all but wiped out in the wars between the Warlord AI's, before the truce and peace of The Triad.

The Cassandra is dead. The Cassandra was supposedly killed by the White Queen because the Cassandra knew of the Trojan Horse the White Queen had planted in Amaryllis and had warned Amaryllis (who ignored her.)
Except both the White Queen and the Medusa know a Cassandra is very hard to kill.
