    I've said it before, but I think the NCPD subcontractor thing was come up with as just a narrative device to diegetically explain flagging miniature world events/quests in your hud that got implemented and then wasn't really thought about after that, because there are lots of them where they really don't make sense to be a police bounty contract. Like there are several flagged encounters that are corporate security forces who just executed one or more people (and you get a payout from the system for killing the licensed security forces who were acting lawfully as far as the hellworld's system is concerned), in at least one case there's a gang that was tipped off by the police themselves about a detective's CI, etc all being folded into that system.
