Is this anyway to treat an Admiral...

...Of course, the Temporal Prime Directive can be retroactively nullified by doing a bit of time travel. If you go back in time and change things, nobody but you will notice anything! So unless you turn yourself in, you'll never get caught.

It's basically the same with the good old Prime Directive of Noninterference. Only the authorities can catch you - but, being the local starship captain, you are the authorities. When you're the judge, jury and executioner all in the same package, "violation of the law" is a pretty meaningless concept. You are the law.

Picard was stranded there a long time. Methinks he ate the corpse and just buried the bones.

Epitaph: "A great Starfleet Captain . . . and delicious to the end."
 
Temporal Prime Directive. Feh. You can't have two "Prime" Directives. Just another one of the later shows silly nomenclatures.
