It's very unlikely that he/they are either dead or in prison. Satoshi went silent for over a year, and then only came out and sent a single message when Dorian Nakamoto was pegged as Satoshi.
It's definitely conceivable that he/she would not be so greedy as to touch the origin coins. It's enough to cash out couple millions from later wallets, buy some nice house near beach and live very comfortably.
Of course, I still think much more likely scenario is that Satoshi is dead or lost his/her private key.
