Q: Why was the person responsible for the Blackwater fish kill never found?

Are people getting into trouble for disseminating this man's beliefs? I remember the now VP saying something about Haitian eating people's pets, so I'm unclear why dissemination of words by elites currently in power would get anyone into trouble.
