It is of course right and proper for the forces of the state to be subject to a higher level of accountability than terrorists.
An amnesty, or at least early release for convicted paramilitaries from both sides, was part of the GFA. If, historically, effort had been put into dealing with malfeasance by security forces in same way as it was for paramilitaries then maybe all this would be behind us.
Instead there was repeated whitewash, obstruction, destruction of evidence and cover up right up to the present day.
Let's see what evidence against Soldier B is. If the evidence doesn't stand up he'll be acquitted. If there's mitigation it can be reflected in sentence.
