The problem which the AG (and in parts the SEC) always and also in the Milken cases have is, that they go after the big fish, at least they say so and at the same time cut deals to get testimonials.
Those again come from people in the know and definitely not Xerox operators. So the "marzipan layer" in a company can often go untarnished.

Similar in the brocade case, the criminal investigation might be interested into the employees knowing of options fraud, but it was soon clear that while they may have "aided and abetted" they did not benefit.
Therefore the evident lack of interest. Which is not wrong: Those ones who simply execute shall not bear the same responsibility than those who devised a fraud scheme. For being honest they may even evade prosecution.

And yes, the conduct of the state attorney is another thing...
