I would be unsurprised if he was given several opportunities to come clean. He was arrested for lying over and over again. I’ve applied for and won government grants from both the NIH and DOD. There are clear places to list these conflicts in the application. There are additional times you are asked after you win a grant. And he is accused of then lying to a DOD investigator and investigators from the NIH.
He isn’t accused of any crimes for having a joint appointment. He is accused of lying about the fact that he had a joint appointment.

But he wanted their money, so he lied to the US Govt systematically, and then directly when asked about it. Obviously this behaviour is absolutely mad, and until you meet one of these huge ego guys is seems unlikely, but so many of them have a huge sense of their own importance. One hopes that other prominent researchers will understand the lesson.
