Criminal anti trust matters are transferred to the DOJ by the FTC

usdoj.gov

"2. Criminal Referrals

When a matter is before the Federal Trade Commission and the Commission determines that the facts may warrant criminal action against the parties involved, the Commission will send a written notice to the Antitrust Division and make available to the Division the files of the investigation following an appropriate access request. See infra Section A.3. The Director of Criminal Enforcement, through the Premerger Notification Unit/FTC Liasion Office, will refer the matter to the appropriate section, task force, or field office for review of the materials and for determination as to whether the matter should be presented to a grand jury. Determination should be made by the section or field office within 30 days of the referral, so that the Division can inform the Commission of its position in timely fashion.

If the Division determines that a matter should be referred to a grand jury, it will request that the Federal Trade Commission transfer the matter. If, on the other hand, the Division decides not to pursue the matter with a grand jury, then the Commission may proceed with its own investigation. "

The testimony collected by the FTC is directly transferrable to the DOJ. It is also available to the Grand Jury.

This explains the effort by the Dramurai to seek as many protective orders as they could.

Nevertheless, there is already ample evidence of criminal antitrust behavior on the part of Micron. That is why the heat is on Micron and the rest of those companies.
