Jimmy accused of massacre

Consul Jimmy has been accused of commanding a massacre by SS troops of a native tribe 47 years ago in suppressed documents unearthed by a conspiracy theories magazine. It has been claimed that the natives were rounded up by Dino Army troops under Jimmy's command and then executed en masse by SS troops from the Black Dragon Martyrs Brigade which was attached to Jimmy's command for this operation.

Jimmy has strenuously denied the allegations saying that Dino Army records clearly show he was not in command of any operation though the conspiracy magazine claim the operation was kept secret. Ronald, speaking from Xi, says he also thinks these allegations are false though says he was not on Dino-Land at the time.
