I think it is crazy that our tax money was wasted on prosecuting Ms. Jones. The USOC could have easily sanctioned her within the governing rules of her particular sport without the government having gotten involved in it.

Aren't there real criminals that deserve prosecution instead?

Why do you pose this as an either/or? It is not as though there was a murder or bank robbery that went unprosecuted so that they could bring Jones to justice.
