Context:
After 30 years as an elite interrogator, you decide you are ready to retire and do something more enjoyable with your life, however you have one last job, the Snake Bearers, who are recognisable by their calling card and insignia, the Red Anarchy, surrounded by snakes. You look at the case files of the Snake Bearers and know the real names of all 6 members. Every member also has a codename, an alias and you have noticed that each member has a distinct… trait of sorts. There’s only a slight issue, you have no idea who is what.
The Snake Bearers are an immensely popular gang, especially with the younger populace, as they have been a traditionally pacifical gang, who redistributes wealth from those who would not even notice it go missing, to those whose life it changes. If you were to incorrectly charge them, or falsely charge them, there would be significant outcries and as the government has been decreasing in stability, may not be able to survive the ensuing heat. It is up to you to make the correct decision, as well as figure out who everyone is, in order to maintain a close eye on them.
The Snake Bearers were caught in their latest crime, a set of robberies across the state. 5 banks and a jewelry store. Of these robberies, only one had casualties, rather, only one had actually started. The robber of the [FORTH BANK], who is responsible for the murder of 24 people, out of a total of 27. Once the authorities caught wind of this, all other stores were placed on high alert and everyone was brought into testing. A lesser investigator managed to figure out all 6 of the gang members, but could not figure out which member was which, and has now given you the responsibility.
Riddle:
Of the survivors of the [FORTH BANK], 2 survivors were guards, and one was a janitor, who had gone to the bathroom. The gang member in question had reportedly a dull, red glowing feeling to them.

Each Gang Member gave the following testimony & information.
Gang Member 1:
Gang Member 1 is a middle aged man, who does not appear to care about their clothing choice. They have longer, unkept hair and large bags under their eyes.
GM1 - “I don’t even know why I’m here. All you are doing is accusing me of being a member of the Snake Bearers without proof. I’m an astrologist for god’s sake. I can show my research, I’m quite bright you know. I was just having issues with my electronic account, and decided to go into [SECOND BANK] personally for help.”
Int - “I see, you’ve been spotted with a girl known as Annabelle Thomas. If you are not aware of her name you may be aware of her signature pink hair.”
GM1 - “Oh, I believe I’ve talked to her once or twice. I was at a jewelry store, and she wanted to know what I was buying. I believe I was buying a gift for my dear mother.”
Gang Member 2:
Gang Member 2 is a younger girl, no older than 25. She has dyed pink hair and a short stature. In spite of this, she is dressed quite nicely, but does not look very (lady like).
GM2 - “Yeah I’m a member of Snake Bearers, so what? That ain’t a crime, it should be a crime to be that stupid though, that [REDACTED] idiot. How did we let someone so useless into this gang? At least Rigel was an airhead, but this idiot just had to make a mess. Anyways, I didn’t rob [REDACTED], I was at a jewelry store, planning to make an actual purchase.”
Int - “If you are a member of the Snake Bearers, then you should be able to tell the difference between the Kelly brothers. How do you do it?”
GM2 - “Easy. Nicolas is way scarier, and he likes to be called his hometown, must think he’s top [REDACTED] or whatever. Both brothers are like that, really. Maybe simplicity is their thing.”
Gang Member 3:
Gang Member 3 is a large man, with sleeves of tattoos up and down their arms. He looks like the kind of man who could knock you out if he just so much as breathed on you hard enough. His bald head and dry skin does not pay him any favours, though. His eyes showed that he had seen all the world had to offer, and no longer cared for it’s shenanigans.
GM3 - “I am no robber. I am no criminal. I was hired as private security to deal with a client that the owner of [THIRD BANK] was having little fun with. I would like to receive my paycheck.”
Int - “Do you have any connection to Orion or Anu?”
GM3 - “They are of the stars. No? I believe Orion is one of the oldest constellations known.”
Gang Member 4:
Gang Member 4 looks someone from out in the country. A relatively unremarkable man, until you met his eyes. Those eyes looked like they could slice you in half, making you feel constantly in danger.
GM4 - “Please sir, I’m just a man of god, I don’t wish to be here, please you need to understand, I’m a pastor at a church, these people need me, they need to believe in their god, and it is I who will transfer their wills to god, I must show them the light of god.”
Int - “But sir, you have been known to have connections to the Snake Bearers Gang. Do you have any connections to Mx. Cook or Mx. Kelly?”
GM4 - “I- No I can’t- say I do. I would like to preach now, can I please leave now?”
Int - “Not yet.”
Gang Member 5:
Gang Member 5 did not appeal to be overly male or female. They just appeared to be a young person, wearing a shirt that reads “APRIL 2017 - GORILLAZ” on it.
GM5 - “Ayo you think I’m in the Snake Bearers? They’re so cool, I wish I was. I’m in a different gang though. Oh- wait I shouldn’t have said that. [REDACTED]. Dan is going to kill me! [REDACTED] I am not good at this. Oh god and if Dan doesn’t after that, then Niqolus will.”
Int - “Are you a Kelly?”‘
GM5 - “As in the Ned Kelly Gang? Those guys are legends, but no, I ain’t no Kelly.”
Gang Member 6:
Gang Member 6 appeared to be an elderly lady, in spite of this, she looked as active as ever, looking quite fit, but also covered in red spray paint. She also appeared to be quite a tall but thin lady, had the time been 40 year earlier, she might have been a model.
GM6 - “Oh dearie, I went out to pay my grandchildren a sum of money from [FIRST BANK] but I must have forgotten to clean the paint off from last night, see I’m a professional artist, but I always seem to make such a mess.”
Int - “I see, who is your grandson? Would it be one Hugo Newman?”
GM6 - “No, no, my grandson’s name is Niqolus.”
