and in their daily lives. People should avoid them just to keep their own reputations from being sullied for being seen talking to them.

Sometimes official punishment or pardons are meaningless. Like child molesters they should be branded forever as torturers and traitors to the Constitution. Hopefully all they've done will come out and no will be able to defend them, just like McCarthy who was so bad that they named an era after him because it was such a dark time. The Bush Era might even be named to single it out.
