Well, the US dollar is an instrument to serve the interests of the US people. Many Americans were harmed by the collapse, so the government is going to try to claw back what it can for its people. After all, doesn’t matter where you are in the world, if you’ve got USD in your hands, you’re subject to US law.

Lawmakers/prosecutors do know that they are unlikely to recover a majority of lost funds. They’re going to put this man behind bars as a deterrent to others who want to (allegedly) defraud Americans.
