Prosecution and punishment are different. I dare say many of those who've suffered would be grateful if those responsible were simply identified and prosecuted and accepted their wrongdoing. Whatever punishment deemed appropriate at the time would be a different matter. Whilst the thugs and murderers still won't even reveal where they disposed of their victims there can be no chance of these matters being forgotten or put behind anyone. The troubles in Ireland have persisted for many decades and I can't see one side forgetting and the other side not.
