9. Who?
Who would plea bargain with a low-level flunky? There is no investigation. I guess if you squeezed the head of the ACE Elevator Co. (I'm sure he must know something) then he'd roll over on somebody, but nobody's squeezed him, so he hasn't rolled over yet.

"And of course everyone involved is a moral coward unwilling to step forward to take responsibility for their actions. You have such a dark, cynical view of mankind - if people are not basically good how can you hope for a better world?"
Yes, I have a very dark, cynical view of mankind and I don't hope for a "better world". In what way should it be better?
When I search my memory I can only think of one person who came forward to admit to murder without being squeezed and I seem to remember that Crime and Punishment was a work of fiction.

btw, "thousands of people" - thank you for pulling a number out of your ear.
