It is possible and the passage of time makes it less and less likely that anything will happen.

But, DHS would defer any action on a civil administrative fine until after any criminal charges, federal or state, are declined.

The key here is not to discuss this with anybody other than your lawyer. Not friends, colleagues, relatives and the like.

Until and unless you hear that the matter is formally declined, it is not. At some point, the statute of limitations will run, but that is years off.
