Garrus-9

A comprehensive detention and rehabilitation facility located on Elba, Garrus-9 also known as "G-9" is decidedly more humane than comparable Decepticon prisons. The penitentiary houses prisoners (Autobot and Decepticon) incarcerated under the Tyrest Accord by warrant officers such as Ultra Magnus. Those who admit their guilt, or who are considered to be Threat Level Nine, have their sparks extracted, either to ensure they can be controlled or to make the passage of time easier on them. Such sparks are held in a special section known as "The Rig". Prisoners who are kept whole are kept in cells, with maximum security being located in the lower levels.

In the event of an emergency, personnel can hole themselves into a maximum security area known as "The Last Resort." This section also holds some of the most dangerous offenders. It follows a naming scheme started by Garrus-1.

Pre-MUX
Garrus-9 housed Aequitas, a massive Autobot supercomputer designed as a culpability drive - a machine capable of calculating guilt from the prisoners placed before it. Something known only to the highest echelons of the Autobot command was that not only was Aequitas used to determine the guilt of Decepticon criminals, but Autobot ones as well. Those Autobots who bore witness to the trials at G-9 were horrified by accounts of civilian executions, torture, morphcore harvests, rust injections, desecration of corpses and spark transplants, all conducted by fellow Autobots. Chief Justice Tyrest agreed with luminaries such as Prowl, Xaaron and Nightbeat that for the sake of Autobot morale and the overall war effort, the trials would be kept secret until the final verdict.
