Collective punishment also has done immeasurable damage to society and I'm glad that most reasonable systems of law do not consider it legal.

Go after the guilty party and revert whatever benefits they got. If money went to dependents, that money is to be seized. But those who received the money are not at fault per se. Unless they helped in the crime, then they are obviously guilty too, but not of receiving fund but for helping committing a crime.
