I don't think that's even secondary. They did what they did, "willfully and intentionally";
1- because they thought it was their right, maybe I should say the right of their offices.
2- because nobody stopped them, reinforcing their beliefs.

So while I agree the issue should be investigated and resolved as to exactly what the limits are, I'd rather it not be a witch hunt.
