By [[2558]], Petrosky had retired from UNSC service. After retiring, his quality of life decreased as the benefits veterans received on his planet were poor. He claimed to always be one missed check away from living on the streets and he could only afford to eat canned proteins. [[Benjamin Giraud]], as part of his investigation into the history of the Master Chief, found Petrosky through the conspiracy theorist [[Mshak Moradi]]. Although Petrosky was not in the list of approved sources from [[Office of Naval Intelligence|ONI]], Giraud contacted him through [[Chatter]]net and interviewed him. Petrosky's recollection of the events on the UNSC ''Atlas'' described John-117 as a "monster" who had undergone [[SPARTAN-II augmentation procedures|genetic augmentations]] at the age of thirteen. Although Giraud questioned the underlying ethical concerns in the [[SPARTAN-II program]] implicated in that suspicion, Petrosky insisted what he saw was genuine, and it did not make a difference to him whether Giraud believed him or not.<ref name="HTT03"/> Giraud later contacted Petrosky again, who revealed that he heard rumors of ONI kidnapping children in order to conscript them into the SPARTAN-II program and then biologically augmenting them to turn the candidates into supersoldiers. Petrosky admitted that he did not care if ONI retaliated because he leaked out the Spartan-IIs' origins, as he believed his life could not get worse.<ref name="HTT07"/>
