Or simply, in free societies sometimes the bad guys get away with things. Or maybe they're not the bad guys and the state has deemed them "bad guys".

And what's really pathetic is that societies don't have discussions about unintended consequences of laws, and that prosecutors don't have checks-n-balances on their power/authority.
