Who kept Alex, Zoe, and Grandpa out of the news when the yacht exploded?

• A. Special Agent Tyree
• B. The mayor
• C. The press secretary
• D. The police chief

Answer: (A)

Controlling information during an investigation. In a situation like a yacht explosion, keeping certain people out of the news is about protecting safety and the integrity of the case. A Special Agent is the role that has authority over sensitive details and coordinates what can be shared publicly. They manage who gets identified, what facts are released, and when, to avoid tip-offs that could hinder evidence collection, threaten witnesses, or put people at risk. That kind of decision—to shield Alex, Zoe, and Grandpa from public exposure—fits the responsibilities of a Special Agent who is handling the investigation. The other roles are more focused on public messaging or local authority, and their typical duties involve sharing information publicly or addressing political or safety concerns, which would usually push toward transparency rather than concealment.
