Telepath WarThe Telepath War is a conflict in the fictional Babylon 5 universe. This conflict occurs a few years after the events of the television series, and before the events of the Crusade television series. The war pits non-telepathic humans ("mundanes") and rogue telepaths against the Psi Corps. The Psi Corps attempts to take over the Earth Alliance government. The Psi Corps also runs a number of concentration camps to "re-educate" the rogues they capture, and kills civilians who have sheltered rogue telepaths. John Sheridan and the Interstellar Alliance intervene in the situation. The normal humans and rogue telepaths win this war. Following the war, the Psi Corps is disbanded, and a new Psionic Monitoring Commission founded to replace the corps. A number of Psi Corps members are charged with war crimes. Many serve time in prison for their crimes. Others escape justice, and the commission dedicates itself to hunting down war criminals. Alfred Bester is one such fugitive from justice. He manages to remain at large for several years. Michael Garibaldi finally removes the mental blocks Bester had planted to prevent Garibaldi from harming him, and vigorously pursues Bester. Eventually, Bester reaches Paris, France. He lives for a time under an assumed name, Claude Kaufmann, and begins a relationship with a local businesswoman. Garibaldi is instrumental in apprehending Bester. Bester is tried and convicted of crimes against humanity, sentenced to life in prison, and forced to take telepathy-inhibiting drugs. He dies ten years later.
