This op was undertaken by DOJ IG + DOE + FBI. ;)

It wasn't the DOJ IG, it was the DOE IG.

"The case is being investigated by DOE-OIG and the FBI. Assistant Chiefs Ephraim Wernick and Christopher J. Cestaro and Trial Attorney Derek J. Ettinger of the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section, as well as Assistant U.S. Attorneys David I. Salem and Michael T. Packard of the District of Maryland, are prosecuting the case."

Note that some same people were involved in the 2015 case:

“The DOE-OIG and FBI investigated the case. Trial Attorneys Christopher Cestaro, Ephraim Wernick and Derek Ettinger of the Criminal Division’s Fraud Section and Assistant U.S. Attorneys David I. Salem and Michael T. Packard and Special Assistant U.S. Attorney Meghan A. Leibold of the District of Maryland prosecuted the case.”

"In June 2015, Lambert’s former co-president, Daren Condrey, pleaded guilty to conspiracy to violate the FCPA and commit wire fraud, and Vadim Mikerin pleaded guilty to conspiracy to commit money laundering involving violations of the FCPA. Mikerin is currently serving a sentence of 48 months in prison and Condrey is awaiting sentencing.

Condrey is still awaiting sentencing after 2.5 years. Can mean only one thing; he's cooperating with the feds.
