Amen. The victims have the paramount claim on justice, not the location, or the self-appointed owners of it.

As a corollary, this is why so many of our Tribe were angry not only at the Gallente, but at the _Republic_ over what happened. We felt—as Chief Acassa Midular made clear—that the Tribe had the primary claim and authority to take action, not the Republic. I can only hope that had the slain Chieftain not been the Ray of Matar, with all of the special weight that carried with _all_ of the Tribes, the Sebiestor Tribe’s primacy would have been respected.
