As a former prosecutor and defense attorney, a few factors struck me. First, it’s much easier to convince a prosecutor that the man is the ringleader/culprit. Second, it’s a white-collar crime. Prosecutors don’t get excited about property crimes. The enormity of what she must disgorge, $11B, seems to have been negated by the first two factors. Finally, sentencing guidelines can only assist you so far.
