The real world doesn’t work like Law and Order. There will be an investigation before a grand jury. Evidence will be collected and a case built. Evidence and witnesses will be subpoenaed.
At the end of that will come a criminal indictment (unless the grand jury declined to issue an indictment, which is rare).
At that point the investigation is over. You don’t indict then build a case. Federal prosecutions don’t work that way.
This is a complicated case because it involves a lot of money, a tenuous paper trail, lots of communications and several jurisdictions. SBF may need to be extradited and whatever court hears that case will need a strong case. A failure to extradite Matt effectively kill the whole case.
This fraud is so egregious that the US government won’t let this stand. Stealing customer assets is as open and shut as a case gets.
