Kaneki isn't to be blamed for the civilian casualties that occured upon the release of Dragon.

Dragon is responsible for those deaths.

And for all that the civilians and citizens of tokyo are concerned, the one responsible is a "kaiju". Not a person.

Have you ever seen anyone try and put Godzilla in the courtroom on the charges of "murder"?

Tried to arrest a hurricane or a arson for "multiple cases of manslaughter"?

"Dragon" is akin of a natural disaster, Dragon is a man-made disaster.

And for as the civilians of tokyo are concerned, it would be enough payment for all those life lost to see Dragon destroyed.

They don't even know that Kaneki Ken is alive or who he is.

And considering that Furuta has been the one outed as the mastermind behind the disaster, he will be the one considered a "murderer", not Kaneki Ken.

There is a difference between "Murder" and a "killing".

That is "intent".

A "murderer" is intending to kill someone on purpose.

A "killer" is someone who doesn't intend to kill someone but ends up with a corpse by accident.

Kaneki Ken is not a murderer of those civilians.

And considering that the Ouggai basically where massmurderers themselves, (plus that they where soldiers in an actual "war" against the ghouls, them being casualties are to be expected.)

And while at this...

If the death of another is warrant for "murder" then wouldn't that mean that all soldiers who survived any war and killed other soldiers, should be put to trial as "murderers" as well?

It is the same logic some here try to apply to Kaneki.

"Murder is murder"...

...And if that truly is the case, then why aren't all the "War veterans" in jail for what they did? Or any soldier for that matter?

See the fault in the logic of the prosecutors here?
