Okabe's not in the wrong because he is working to prevent a dystopia, but it's not like she would have any idea what crime she committed since she did not and in the current timeline cannot commit that crime.

The point is, Mayuri ends up dying in all these time lines precisely because of Moeka's actions with SERN. She is destined to death precisely because of her killing her on that day. Whether she knows about it or not in this timeline, her actions have already put them in the situation they are in.

Okabe is certainly carrying a lot of emotional weight with all this. I fear he'll even have to make tougher decisions soon enough.
