How much was really lost won't matter much in terms of prosecuting those who committed any crimes. And while it looks like a huge crime to me, they are still innocent until proven guilty.

It does matter to those who appear to have been defrauded. They won't be made whole. There will be opportunity costs, and I can't imagine it all being recovered. But if a significant portion is recovered, it would provide some help to the victims.
