Before laying down judgement on Google, this is standard procedure for any kind of legal matter / fraud.
I work at a bank and it's absolutely critical that we do not let anyone know of our reasons for banning/suspending accounts while there's fraud investigations on the account.
Investigations take a long time since we need to determine if the fraud/criminal actions were 100% done by the user of the account, or if the account was compromised and was used as a proxy. 90% of the times we find it's a third party takeover and the user is cleared. There's a good chance his husband's account was taken over and someone was using his Drive to host pirated movies.
Think about the other side when thinking about a situation like this. I'm sure Google is taking this very seriously.

It is entirely possible that this is due to a much more severe issue like production or distribution of child pornography or similarly egregious criminal activity that they can't divulge other than to the authorities.
