My sentiments are essentially the same, but I've heard a lot of talk around the street as to what should be done once the due process is completed.

As far as making crazy people celebrities, unfortunately I think that's all the news is meant to do these days. Most news channels have stopped simply reporting the facts, but now tout opinionated speculation. Particularly since 9/11, when the words "Osama bin Laden" were first spoken, every major human-induced disaster since has resulted in the media spotlight shining brightly on those accused and/or responsible. The "masses" need something to blame and point fingers at, and the media provides just the thing for them.
