Here's a thought experiment for you: if you were raped, would you want the government to give up prosecuting your rapist just because 10 or 15 years passed before they could locate them? I'm not saying that this crime is on the same level, but Megaupload was at one time responsible for 4% of the entire Internet's piracy activity. And it wasn't a non-profit peer-to-peer file sharing community like The Pirate Bay or anything like that, it was a for-profit corporation directly profiting from stolen IP. Kim built himself a gigantic mansion off of other people's work. And he certainly had the means and ability to consult with lawyers who almost certainly told him that what he was doing was incredibly risky.
