Reasoning
This is a mechanical forward of a threat message by counsel to client. Per REPORTED_ALLEGATION rule, forwarding allegations does not itself constitute trafficking activity. Indyke's act is legal communication (alerting client to threat), not participation in or facilitation of exploitation. The underlying allegation (EVT_002) is separately flagged.
