This is a crime drama. Whether you agree with fracking or love fossil fuels taking away our futures, the characters in this episode did illegal things and did do damage to the people in that area. The episode is about trying to put a stop to the worst of the worst, not an indictment. That's like saying that someone dying in a parachute accident is trying to end the use of parachutes. If a guy tampered with the parachutes, that is a bad guy. If there is such a person in this episode, he or she is a criminal. That's called a plot. By the way, I'm sure CSI will miss you when you stop watching.
