It's possible the feds felt that even a conviction wasn't worth the effort and expense if it failed to result in a slam-dunk, as the Bonds and Clemens trials have failed to do.
Didn't think you would, but now you get to live with the legal concept of:
NOT GUILTY!!! So you can keep spewing the useless innuendo, secure in the knowledge that a two year Federal investigation came up empty handed. Nice to know you know more than the Feds.
