Why is Carl Icahn not is jail and is Trump scared of him or just sucking up?

As special adviser to Cadet BoneSpurs, his input on regulations netted him millions of dollars. I would think that would be criminality of some sort. Clearly a case of our two tier justice system letting a billionaire/oligarch go unpunished.

Trump slobbered all over Icahn when Icahn endorsed him during the campaign. After the election, he basically picked Pruitt as the head of The EPA and was named as a special adviser on regulation reform. Can Icahn be part of the reason Cadet BoneSpurs won't fire Pruitt?

from a holding company formed by the Bankruptcy Administrator. Smells like there was some undeclared Assets that were withheld from the BK Courts.
