Weiss was not the deciding person on whether charges are filed in the early years. Only after he was appointed later by Garland as special counsel, its status allow him to file charges in any federal judicial district, he filed criminal case against Hunter.
The plea agreement before Weiss became special counsel is the weirdest deal. The two sides interpreted the agreement differently. Hunter side said the deal gave Hunter immunity on other things that Hunter was being investigated. The prosecution side said the deal didn't mean to give Hunter immunity on other investigations. This led the judge to reject the deal.
You need to get the record correct before making your point.
