   If the facts of the investigation fail to support indictments against   
   the three men, it's unethical that they're sitting on this report. If   
   the fact do support the indictments, it's unethical that the report   
   wasn't released so there's public confidence in the prosecution and   
   so the defendants may prepare a proper defense.
