Answer
After the convictions of the defendants were vacated, the U.S. Department of Justice declined to pursue another trial. This was due to a number of factors, including the fact that the evidence against the defendants was not strong enough to support a conviction, and the fact that the defendants had already spent a significant amount of time in prison.
