The gears of bureaucracy do grind absurdly slow. It is a retarded beast with a hundred heads fornicating itself. These flaws also cause it to be entirely willing to devour itself. They play their legal games and drag this out, but that's fine too. The pendulum swings both ways and their games leave collateral scars across the landscape, making things evidence, making issues open to inspection, and so the cases against them grow and spread; Huber has no leaks, but has been ever so busy. The game can have lethal consequences. It is much easier to start the inquisition than it is to call one off.

Their turn on the defense is coming soon. This time the cases will be real not hoaxes.
