Jon RC4

Apologies is this is part of another. I haven't been on the forums in months.

Email from Jonrc4SPLATgmail.com

Hey,

First off, I'm just gonna say I'm not entirely sure who you are. I mean, I've had so many contacts over the years I can barely remember their names, so if you're someone I've shafted then just forget about this. Your email was near the top of my contacts list, so I figured you knew me.

I'm still locked up down here, surprise surprise. They transferred me over from Sec C last week; the water is a bit better here, food's cooked a tad longer, but other than that it's just same ol', same ol'. I managed to talk a guard into letting me use a computer, he's a nice guy. I've only got a few minutes though, so I'll get to the point. Yeah, there's a point, I didn't do all this just to find out how the frickin' weather is up there.

I'm busting out. It's the warden's birthday in about a month, and the guards are sure to be a little lax on the security. There are a few things I can't figure out down here, so I thought I'd ask you for a bit of help. There's plenty of time, though, so I'll get to that later.
You obviously broke the little cypher I put on here in case the guard reads this, or they have the emails filtered. They're too moronic to see the patterns, obviously. Unlike you.

I'll talk about the details later when the guard lets me back in, but I have ta go. Same time tomorrow? It's a date!

Peace.

Yep I got the same email bright and freakin early. I would assume the guy is in some sort of prison and is definitely planning on breaking out. So I would venture a guess that we are going to be his accomplices either to help him escape. I would assume we also need to find out why he is imprisioned

I cant find any sort of cypher, code, or pattern in the email. Am I just dumb?

Even though I didn't see a code to decipher anywhere, the RC4 looked familiar.

It doesn't look like anything that would appear as plaintext could be coded in RC4, as the outputs are far more varied.

In other analysis, Sec C may be referring to Southeast Correctional Center in Missouri. http://www.prisonary.com/wiki/Southeast_Correctional_Center
That seems to be its abbreviation.

http://doc.mo.gov/division/dai/facilities_inst.php lists all the other Missouri prisons that Jon may be in now, assuming I'm right about Sec C.

Got mine this morning, I'd be more helpful if I didn't have rehearsal in 20 minutes, but I'll definitely try and see if there's a code later.

Things that jump out:

Repetition of some words. Surprise Surprise, Same ol' same ol', Point, so.

Numerous references to "down here" "up there" leading to a feel of an underground prison.

Sec C most likely Section C.

Ok got the new email. Yes I do believe our friend is in a underground facility due in part to his reference to down here and not knowing if it was evening down here.

He does have a accomplice who's in the hole(solitary) till the end of the week.

Also he was in a rush to get that last mail off so he never got to encrypt it but if we are to held this guy we needd to be quick and on another note he said he would answer questions if he felt like it,nice to kno he wants our help and is gonna keeo us in the dark
