I'm sure tracking the Bitcoin stolen from MtGox has been handled competently but...
Given the position of guys that were developing exchange anti-hacking software and their later involvement in stolen bitcoin tracking, I'd have to consider what is elemental in any TV crime show, that the guilty party or parties will try to insinuate themselves into the investigation.
That, and I'd not only track the Bitcoin but also look at international computer shows and what connections to MtGox were made at those times stealing bitcoin. Who were registered in the local hotels? Maybe guys at the hotel bar discussing MtGox and how it might be done? Don't just look at where the bitcoin went but track those capable of doing the hack, where they were when bitcoin went missing.
After the offer to buy out MtGox claims by Fortress and the offer to pay 23% of MtGox bitcoins on deposit as a settlement with MtGox, Fortress and Coinlab would get to profit from any stolen bitcoin later recovered. Suppose someone in Coinlab who holds stolen MtGox bitcoin realizes he can't profit from the theft without eventually getting caught. He or they might anonymously turn the stolen bitcoin in to the trustee after the 23% settlement and at least get something from the theft.
