Guilty or not, may he still rest in peace.
ADD: Samurais in the hands of the enemy have little chance of living, so they opt to kill themselves instead before the enemy does and extract infos, the same case for soldiers may apply. It's not shameful, it's heroic, more like martyrdom.
But in the case of Reyes, NAH, you know what I mean.
