Bastards. If we don't convict these people of crimes, they will come back to haunt us another day, a la Dick Cheney. The minions must be prevented from holding public office again via the long arm of the law.

If the law is just, these criminals will not walk. If the law is unjust, why wouldn't everyone become a criminal and hope they don't get caught? Furthermore, it'll pay to be a crooked apparatchik.

Welcome to the USSA.
