In 2553, Hume was reporting exposés on the [[Office of Naval Intelligence]] that were being broadcast by the [[BuzzCast]]. He showed a considerable bias against [[Spartan]]s, with one of his stories claiming the supersoldiers were behind a supposed meteor impact on [[Tanuab III]]. At some point Hume was contacted by [[Ota Gallo]], a former ONI agent now working for [[Dark Moon Enterprises]]. Seeking to undermine ONI for Dark Moon's gain, Gallo fed Hume information on the [[SPARTAN-III program]], particularly [[Gamma Company]]. On October 14, Hume managed to gain entry into the [[officers' club]] at [[UNSC Recreational Facility 6055-NA-A]] on [[Neos Atlantis]], where a [[Ferret|Ferret Team]] led by [[Veta Lopis]] was conducting an undercover training exercise.{{Ref/Reuse|necessary}}

Hume spotted [[Olivia-G291]], undercover as a [[Luna OCS Academy]] graduate, and started talking to her; unaware of Hume's identity, Olivia played along. With Gallo posing as a server, she and Hume gave Olivia a glass of [[zantelle]] laced with [[nicothiotal]], drugging Olivia in an effort to get information on the Spartan-IIIs. Unfortunately for Hume, Veta Lopis realized what was going on and ordered [[Mark-G313]] to arrest Hume. Mark used a wrist lock to force Hume out the emergency exit into a hallway. However, Hume was resisting which distracted Mark, making him unable to see Gallo moving to attack him with a knife. Mark instinctively used Hume as a shield to block the knife; when Hume continued to resist Mark punched him in the chest, killing him. Mark and [[Ash-G099]] disposed of Hume's body out an [[airlock]]. [[Veta Lopis]] later framed Gallo for Hume's murder, claiming Hume was going to name Gallo as his source.{{Ref/Reuse|necessary}}

In [[2559#October|October 2559]], Veta remembered the incident with Hume when [[Insalaan 'Gadogai]] asked her what Lopis would do to protect the Ferrets.{{Ref/Novel|DW|15}}
