The DOJ prides themselves on the fact that they run prosecutions that in the end net fines that cover the costs of prosecutions. For example take a look at the Bruce Taylor interview he did for PBS a while back:

PBS:As you've said, you're the most experienced prosecutor in this territory in the history of the country. What did you say to the attorney general about prosecuting these cases?

Bruce Taylor: When it was my turn ... I wanted him to know that this is something that has been done in the past -- we made money on it, we didn't cost the taxpayers money. The pornography industry had to pay more in fines than it cost the criminal justice system to prosecute them, and it wasn't just animals, bondage, and children that we prosecuted.
