That's...kinda the way it works when you're in charge: it's called responsibility.
If a Mcdonalds employee starts hacking up customers the CEO should serve gaol time?

Actually, I want to kill all of Cerberus. I don't really care about TIM personally.
Kelly, Donnelly, Jacob?
Yourself?
TIM's philosophy is that the ends justify
any means. Had Pragia shown any progress TIM would have sacrificed thousands of children in that hell hole. As evidence of that I give you his email to Shepard regarding taking the autistic subject from Overlord to the Grissom academy. In that correspondence, he said that he didn't approve of what was done to the subject, but that his loss will set Cerberus back years. If you don't believe that the ends justify any means, then you cannot support TIM.
Shepard's comment regarding TIM's proclivities was apropos when he told TIM that he would fight and win against the Reapers and that he wouldn't sacrifice the soul of humanity doing it. I believe that the possibility of wounding the human soul is a very real one. As proof, I submit the wounded soul of Germany who is still in the process of healing 66 years after the offending incident.
How much more traumatizing would be TIM's sins? At what point do you say, "That's too far?" There is literally no point at which TIM would say that. There is literally no atrocity that he would hesitate to commit in the service of accomplishing his goals. There is nothing so vile that TIM would refrain from doing it. He has no limits to his depravity.
While one could argue that TIM had nothing to do with Pragia, TIM fostered the type of system that allowed such an atrocity to flourish. People have been summarily executed for far less than the atrocities that TIM has either committed or allowed to occur under his watch. TIM would gut his own mother if he thought there was an advantage to be had by doing so. As a Spectre, I am going to end him if I get half a chance. There will be no arrests, no trials, no juries, just a summary execution.
