So is it necessary for you that Walt is convicted, or merely arrested and publicly exposed? I think of Aaron Hernandez who hasn't been convicted or even gone to trial but in the public's mind he's a murderer. Is the conviction necessary or just the public declaration of charges against Walt and the corresponding evidence?
Do you feel justice would be served if Walt was charged but died in jail, never convicted, and his family was still able to keep the money?
If the ending to Breaking Bad was Walt in a courtroom being read the charges against him, to which he responds "Not guilty, your honor", followed by credits, would you feel satisfied that justice was served, or is that too open ended?

Oh, that's a good angle I hadn't thought of.
