Tell that to the Major who wanted to arrest Shepard and keep him prisoner as soon as he was seen with Cerberus. Tell that to the Alliance members who want to use Shepard as a scapgoat to aviod war with the batarians, who have every right themselves to be angry at the murder of over 300,000 citizens. After all they are putting him on trial for the act. And if they dont get him on that they (or the Council) may go after the Commander for teason. Both charges probably carry life imprisonment (if Shepard's lucky) or the death penatly. Tell that to Anderson, who is clearly not sure if he can still trust Shepard after he worked for Cerberus. Tell that to the Virmire survivor, who pretty much told Shep to _ off after seeing them with Cerberus. Sure they're with him now once the Reapers are here. Only Hackett is on Shepard's side and even he knows the trials is the best way to prevent open war.

But i understand your point and agree will have to wait and see. I just feel Shepards been a bit too uncoprative for them to forgive him till after the Reapers show up.
