Lead Mutinies

The Lead Mutinies were a series of mutinies against Commander Ayugai Toshiko on her ship, the UNSC Lead to Gold. The mutinies began after years of the commander overworking the crew and first began as an attempt to have the UNSC remove her from command. After this failed however, several members of the crew entered into revolt and attacked the commander with stolen weapons from the ship's armory.

Toshiko was among the first killed, and several of her bridge staff were killed as well. The mutineers then retreated to the ships armory, where they pushed off several attempts by loyalists on the ship until the loyalists managed to steer the vessel into UNSC space, where Marines were promptly sent out and the mutineer fortifications destroyed. Those mutineers who were not killed immediately were tried and executed, including their leader, Lieutenant Caiden Clark.
