I disagree about prosecuting him doing nothing. You can disagree with it, but jailing snowden and assange will reduce the risk of similar people committing similar crimes. If they don't do something now, more snowdens and assanges will emerge, they cannot let it go.
When was the last serious like from within US IC? They jailed reality winner and that seems to have worked the last couple of years at least. It wasn't that she was caught but that they caught her using a technique unknown to her. It has a chilling effect for sure.
It is a risk reduction and diplomatic strategy. It has little to do with the pursuit of justice.
