The problem is that indicting an individual stops them, more or less. Whatever judgement they get regarding FRAND patents won't have anything to do with search.

If all they had done was collect Capone's taxes without throwing him in prison, it would've been pretty useless. I also have issues with things like tax evasion being used as a proxy to prosecute other crimes, but that's more of a romantic notion about how law should work. I realize it can't be that way.
