The case that is not on the board: the off-board test, run and negative

Press-of-record open cases cross-checked against the ISP list · Osceola and Penn Township

The test: a known open case from the press of record that the official list omits would print here with the omission itself as the finding. The cross-check ran both ways — press-of-record open cases for Osceola and Penn Township against the ISP list, and the list against the press. No open case seated in Osceola or Penn Township was found in the press of record that is absent from the official list, and no listed case touches this ground. The two records agree in their emptiness for this ground, which is why the result prints as a tested negative rather than a gap: there is no off-board case to name. The live cautions ride with it: the Crime leg's frame (no homicide in the press or official record for this ground across the modern span) is a press-and-official finding, and a case never reported to either would be invisible to both instruments — a limit stated, not papered over.
