Having just watched Hotel Rwanda, an excellent movie, It strikes me odd that the trials of the offenders of genocide take a very long time to conclude. For example, Mengistu Haile Mariam's trial lasted 12 years. What happened in the intervening times? Did the evil leader get to live freely? Did he enjoy his last 12 years of freedom? I would like the trials of crimes against humanity to be sped up. I would like the guilty to begin their punishments as soon as possible within the laws of justice. Not that I have any political influence.
Step 1: Identify the Problem: Perpetrators of Crimes may not receive punishments in a timely manner, thus enjoying the larger portion of their lives.
Step 2: Discuss the Problem: See above.
Step 3: Propose one or more workable solutions.
Step 4: Implement a workable solution.
