The reason for the second indictment? The first one was so flawed that Earle had to do a CYA.
You see, the first indictment was for something not illegal when it was done. So it had to be dropped or Earle would look like a fool. To try to save face, he got another indictment on something not included in the first - money laundering.
Being that money laundering is a serious crime and the grand jury was in session for 6 months, would it have not made more sense to include that in the original indictment? I would guess that this means there is not a strong case for money laundering and that it was brought in secondarily by Earle because of how stupid he looks regarding the first.
I stand by my political motivation argument.
