Civil Asset Forfeiture is not freezing assets, it's seizing them with intent to forfeit them. The grand jury never returned a true bill on Nelson and expired before any charges were brought against anyone. This was a shakedown by the FBI of someone who probably didn't commit a crime but as near others who did commit a crime. Honestly, this whole thing should have been a contract dispute in civil court between AWS and Nelson given the information that has been released in court filings. Nelson's contract didn't prohibit moonlighting and as far as Amazon and the feds are concerned, neither have shown any evidence that Nelson took a kickback of any kind.
