Are saying that although this is evil, evil money laundering, if they just get a chance to do more of it, US prosecutors will leave them alone? They failed, so now they have acdha explain to them how they should have known better?

This is nonsense - they didn't hope to get "too big to fail". If you are looking for a reason why Roman Storm felt confident to operate out of and stay in the US it is because:

- there were many questions about whether KYC applied. - these questions remain today.

If you personally want the law to criminalize what the TC founders did, feel free to argue as such, but be prepared to explain what exactly that is, because there are a whole bunch of other people wondering if you'd want to seem them jailed for their particular work on financial vehicles.

Which means that they took a gamble and may have lost (none of us know whether they'll be found guilty or not). It's hard to feel too outraged about someone rolling the dice and coming up snake eyes, especially when there are other people who looked at the same uncertainty and concluded it was too risky to take on.
