Yeah he is definitely charged with conduct after he left
But check this out......seems like he started playing footsie while still on the job.
As an FBI official, McGonigal helped investigate Deripaska and other Russian oligarchs. As a SAC, he supervised investigations into sanctions violations. Yet at the same time, he began building a relationship with an agent of Deripaska, in the hopes of doing business with Deripaska after he retired from the FBI.
It could be the DOJ didn't want to charge conduct while still on the job, because it could get into classified stuff.
This was criminal conduct from 2021, not sure how that would considered one of the Indictments talked about years earlier. Even if he was indicted, which he wasn't. I'm pretty sure he plead guilty before an Indictment.

I wouldn't hold my breath on those.
