They put themselves up the river without paddles...

If they are the real culprits [if they are proven beyond any reasonable doubt] behind the gruesome Mindanao carnage...they are in big big trouble. That is, if fair and due justice is [will be] served. Too many hands ruined the plan and thus deliberately upset their applecart. Too many evidences were left gleaned by authorities after they scampered away and gone hiding with clipped wings. Now some are questioning the declaration of Martial Law in Mindanao. Was it another too late the hero or an overkill? Which is which...but we cannot turn back the hands of time and bring back the lives of those poor victims who suffered a lot in the hands of their executioner. That was grim and grisly way of meeting death head on.
