It is very hard to get guilty verdicts because prosecutors have to prove the culpability of any executive of any large corporation. In large organizations, executives are shielded by layers of bureaucracy along with legal counsel. There is a way to get around this problem of proving culpability of individuals in large organizations. RICO was a way to go after mafia bosses. Thanks to the revolving door (of politicians, staffers of various committees, DOJ employees, prosecutors), it is impossible for the latter class to use RICO to go after any executive of any large company. Of course, one can say SBF was convicted; here, it was easy to find evidence to prosecute and convict SBF.
