Question about double violation on free throw

First scenario - free throw violation: Both teams offend, only offense penalized. Seems unfair.

Your scenario. Both teams offend, we go to AP. Seems fair.

No I don't have a better way to handle it.. just not a lot of scenarios where both teams are equally guilty and only one team gets penalized.

Z,
Yeah. Yer right, the defense is not penalized.

In fact, If I see opponents breaking the plane simultaneously (and they are generally in adjacent spots), I probably no-call it.
If they were both big violations, I guess I hafta penalize the offense.
