I think that those Black Lancers who were directly involved in carrying out terrorist attacks against Confed or the BW, all those involved with the bio-weapon attacks, and those who were involved in planning or supporting either of the above two would have gotten pretty hefty sentences. I imagine that the ordinary foot soldiers would have gotten off pretty lightly, especially if they were willing to give testimony or help Confed with tracking down any other black projects/plans that were hidden away. I don't think that Confed would shoot them simply for having been part of the Black Lance, which after all was a branch of Confed black ops.

I'd tend to agree with that. Although the government might want to destroy anything that resembles the BL (on one hand), it was something that YOU helped create, so that does make it a bit harder to wash your hands of. (Although I can't really remember, didn't Tolwyn say that the BL/GE was supposedly "canned", but really was just put under such harsh secrecy, that only a few people knew about it?)
