IMHO, there is only one possible reason why they're holding back the info on where the $$ went..they are trying to apply pressure on the banks that received the funds to voluntarily return them.
It sounds like most of the $$ went to counterparties overseas, that are much less susceptible to pressure..but I can't believe that any bank(s) would knowingly take a billion $ hit..

I have a feeling a lot of that pressure will be political, as much as it can be applied. We know hoe closely Corzine is tied to Obama. And that will make any kind of legitimate inquiry almost impossible, much less holding anyone to account. Remember Hillary’s $100K cattle futures deal? That whole thing was likely crooked but no one would do a decent investigation. The message was clear to any and all: don't go there. Anyone who had any jurisdiction in the matter wouldn't touch it with a ten-foot cattle prod. They “knew better”.
