Yes they have. But, time to payback their masters. They got the office they were running for and/or a big pay day. This is the part that really sucks for them.
There are consequences no matter what choice they make. They're screwed either way. They can only save their souls at this point. But being good little narcissist/sociopaths, doubt they'll all of a sudden develop a conscience.
There was a German-speaking Lutheran pastor from Saint Louis named Gerecke (rhymes with Cherokee) who worked with several of the Nuremberg defendants. Apparently he brought some measure of courage, comfort and repentance to former Field Marshall Keitel before his ignominious death. Keitel saw hanging as a great humiliation, preferring to be shot instead. And he needed the courage, since he ended up kicking on the gallows for 28 minutes! No one in the US Army remembered how to properly hang criminals any more.
