None of them "walked". They all pled guilty and have not been sentenced.

  Man, I'm low on sleep and making mistakes. I misunderstood the cooperation agreement[0] to mean she would only be prosecuted for criminal tax violations. I see now she has plead guilty to fraud though [1].

    > "the defendant will not be further prosecuted criminally by this Office for any crimes, except for criminal tax violations" That has nothing to do with her sentencing and is typical of any plea agreement. I’m not going to plead guilty to crimes without the guarantee that you’ll not charge me with more. What would be the point of pleading guilty then?
