Three different prosecutors can reach the same conduct, and they operate under different standards. The Eastern District sits in Brooklyn, and federal charges in these matters typically run through wire fraud, money laundering, and securities provisions — reaching the company and its officers on the same facts.

Documents lost after an investigation becomes foreseeable produce a second case, easier to prove than the first.Whether the company is a target or a witness — which the government will usually say, and which changes everything that follows.And when employees need their own counsel.
