Well, that was brutal. I agree with Kanon - That was probably the most shocking episode of the entire series.
After this episode, I'm inclined to see Sibyl vs. Kamui as Lawful Evil vs. Chaotic Evil. Kamui now appears just as willing to have people die as part of his plans as Makishima was. As for Sibyl, well... I think the utter slaughter we saw in this episode says a lot, and it says it loudly.
Crime coefficients clearly skyrocket from simple panic attacks. We saw a little bit of this in Episode 1 of Season 1, but now it's been heavily reinforced in Season 2, Episode 4.
People who have panic attacks can very well recover if just given a chance. Here we see how if you don't have an Akane controlling Dominator-use, they may well not get a chance. Truly tragic.
Well, it's either that or Sibyl simply wanted these people dead, period, and hence arbitrarily upped their crime coefficients to do so.
