  That's where an org chart comes in. You find the people directly responsible, and walk up the chart until you reach the point you can't prove a person could be reasonably aware of what their sub^n-ordinates were doing. All people you collected up to that point should then be put in front of a judge. That's just a restating of an idea that superiors are responsible for the actions of their subordinates. I think it's called "vicarious liability", though IANAL.
