I bet you wouldn't feel that way if you were the target of the investigation. Then you'd lose the bet. I'm not saying that I wouldn't feel bad, or perhaps even feel that an injustice had been perpetrated against me. But even if I felt that, and even if the feeling was based on truth rather then just my bias for myself, it wouldn't have anything to do with obstruction of justice. If you got stabbed you would be hurt, perhaps even killed, most likely the stabbing would be an injustice against you. But if you tried to argue "I've been shot", or "I've been run over by a truck" you would be wrong (unless those things also happened). Similarly I might be upset and hurt if a malicious prosecution occurred against me. But feeling hurt, even legitimately feeling hurt, doesn't mean any accusation I made against the person who hurt me would be true. Getting back to the actual case rather then hypothetical, apparently there was no prosecution, but if there was its far from clear that it would have been an unjust malicious prosecution. It may have been a fully justified prosecution. More likely it was a borderline case.
